1000 gestures/drawings?

I was watching some videos from http://ctrlpaint.com/ and the guy in the video had said something about an assignment he did in college that was 1000 gesture drawings in a week.  He talked a bit on how just about everybody in his class was able to complete the assignment.  Then the thought crossed my mind...  Have I even done 1000 drawings since I started this blog?  Naturally I felt a bit ashamed that perhaps I  hadn't even done that many gesture/drawings since I started this thing, and it's been months.  So I decided to go through my art folder and count all my gestures/figures/everything i have done.

With little faith that I had even come close to 1000, I began counting.  The numbers quickly rose to 100, 300, 600.  I must admit I was taken aback a bit by the time I hit 800s...  And to my surprise, by December 1st 2012, I had hit 1000.   whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat!

So I kept counting.  The numbers kept rolling past, it was crazy!  It took a bit, but I finally got my end number.  (granted I did slip up a time or two when counting, but anything i've done outside of this website should sort things out.)

My end number was...
2131

O.O  More than double what I didn't even thing I had reached!  All improvements aside, that alone was enough to put a smile on my face!  Then of-course seeing how my understanding of the human figure has improved exponentially!!  I feel so empowered!  Like I actually want to try the 1000 gestures in one week thing.

HECK I want to more than double my current 2131 number of sketches/gestures/drawings!!!   mmmm....  well...  I will probably never count all of my drawings again like this, the number is irrelevant, but it's the progress I have come.  Everything I have learned.  I'm looking forward to my studies even more than before!  I welcome the future with open arms. 

Just the things i can do if i set my mind to it.  Pretty intense stuff.

and uhh... he has tails now.

More training!
