1. Make 100 pics each pic having a theme listed below.
Each pic should have ONE and only ONE theme to it, for it to count.

2. No time limit so have fun

3. The main picture should be drawn but not limited to.
for all fair purposes,
people are allowed to use their paint programs and photo shop to create the pic.

4. pics should be of own artistic ability.
You may not edit photos, or break any other rules set out in the Da etiquette policy.
Your pics can be anything from sketches and doodles to great master pieces.
Just have fun with it.

5. The list below is to be placed somewhere in your journal for others to see that...
- You are in the challenge.
- What you have completed.

Argh, stupid triple commenting.
Thanks for the advice. I always felt something was wrong with some of the cartoons I've done, and too much detail seems to fit the problem. I'll have to look over my stuff and work on that :D

What I like about your "abstract" stuff is that it emphasizes its shape. They have clear and interesting silhouettes which I instantly feel when I look at them. By contrast, your more cartoon-like stuff seems bogged down with many more details than necessary and those obscure the interesting shapes and silhouettes that might be there. Good contrast helps a lot. It's easier to see in abstract stuff but contrasting size, shapes, colors, luminosities generates good stuff. Best of luck.
