Today marks 1 month of drawing every day. Have I improved? Not much. But I can draw giraffes a lot better for sure. Probably because I spent a week drawing daily giraffes in socks for my friend.
I think I need to do another challenge like that.

Every day I spin a roulette wheel of 148 animals. Whatever it lands on, I sketch that animal as best I can in the length of a single song. Today's animal was a robin.
Usually once I start drawing, I want to keep going until I've filled at least a page. Typically, I draw a variety of things.

Tried my hand at drawing a grey crowned crane today. Turned out better than expected, even if it's a long way from perfect. Spent around 20 minutes on this.
