Thought I'd try casually/unofficially taking part in the 100 Day Event 2013 going on in the An Artist And Art Collectors Paradise guild.
I doubt I'll do all the days as I'll most certainly forget to check the guild and probably won't have time, so I thought I'd post here of which ever one's I do decide to do.
The event: you have to do some sort of art with your choice of art medium (sketch, photography, craft, paint, etc) every day for 100 days straight. The piece needs to be based on/fit one of the 5 themes given that day.

Rabbit on the moon pounding the elixir of life

I wanted to try to go for a Chinese art style/look.

Apparently Mastodon's were "predominantly forest dwelling animals that fed on a mixed diet of browsing and grazing with a seasonal preference for browsing, in contrast to living elephants that are mostly grazing animals."
And yes, I did need to look up the difference between grazing and browsing XD
So here is a browsing Mastodon.
For anyone interested apparently "grazing is eating grass or forbs, and browsing is eating woody twigs and leaves from trees and shrubs"
He came out fluffier/hairier than I had planned but I still like how he came out XD
