December Drawing Challenge
In December 2020, I gave myself a challenge: to draw everyday, until Christmas, something related to the beloved holiday. The result? Lots of elves.
This is one of my favorite personal projects until now and I’m really proud to see it completed. It felt like a marathon during which I learned how to better manage my time and energy, and how to tackle these kinds of challenges in the future.

On December 5, we celebrate Saint Nicholas Eve in Romania, where I'm from. Children clean their boots and wait for Saint Nicholas (Mos Nicolae) to bring them candy and small gifts if they've been good, or a twig if they've been bad.
On December 6, we get our tree ornaments ready, and on December 7... we just sit on a gift box.
