It's probably true in my case!
Here he is - The Mad Hatter!
This is my very first attempt at watercolors since high school art class.
Sadly, it's not on proper paper so it is curling a bit.
Today marks the official start of NaNoWriMo, though I was up last night - or rather - this morning until about 3 am getting some writing done and hanging out in my new Chat Nano Florida:Elsewhere room.
It was kind of cool that 2 of my Elsewherians were there.
Thank you, Nikki & Kay
Naw, they're not on Steemit
and being a municipal liaison, I can't really be promoting Steemi
when they need to focus on their book.
It would be a conflict of interest.
This is the initial sketch traced in marker.
I was just starting to add a little watercolor.
So... Why am I Mad as a Hatter?
Well, not only am I participating in one of the most challenging writing contests on the planet, I decided to join in her 30 days of drawing.
She posted her whole drawing schedule for the month!

I am nowhere near that organized. In fact, the only reason why I drew the hatter was because it seemed appropriate. I have no idea what's in store tomorrow!
As for writing...
I've managed to get over 1300 words done and I'd like to write more before I head to bed.
I am quite pleased with some of the details, like his eyes and his hat.
What have you challenged yourself with this month?
And here I am posing with the final piece. Maybe I should call it "Self Portrait"?
