   Eight years ago today, I began a precursor to #notesArt: a project called #100things. The idea was to make one artwork per day, 100 times.

   It was a very different and yet weirdly similar era. The country was looking down the barrel of dysfunction that we barely knew the scope of; I'd run across @benbarry 's One Hundred Patterns (https://v1.benbarry.com/project/one-hundred-patterns) and liked the idea of a regular experimental project that would take my mind off things.

   Today, I'm digging these out of the closet. Enjoy.

     @csilverman I wish I could favorite this 100 times. I'm excited to see the other 99 of this series.

     Chicken :cqlgusu: repeated this.

     @skry heh yeah, it gets interesting. I think one of the coolest things about doing something creative every day—doesn't matter what—is that the work inevitably evolves, and you can see it shift.

     Sometimes you don't notice the direction until you go back over it later; sort of an archaeological record of whatever was going through your mind at the time.
