31 December 2025 - Daily Drawing Day 365
#20252025Challenge
And so my one year daily drawing challenge comes to an end. I drew today's doodle on a 8-hour Twitch live stream (thanks to everyone who stopped by, including Momma Darlo at the end). This drawing is a call back to when I did the same challenge in 2020 (traditionally rather than digitally), with Darlos that have popped up throughout the year. Do you recognise them all?

This year has been full of moments, and some days have been trickier than others to sit down and do a doodle. But many people have been encouraging me throughout the year. Thank you.

I want to give a huge thank you to Momma Darlo, whose adventures have been the basis for a good number of the doodles. She's been very encouraging, always looking for the parachute guy, and also a good sport (sorry that the way I draw you looks like a monkey).

Next year there won't be new drawings every day, I'm looking forward to a bit of a break. But I do have some comic ideas that I'll be working on every now and then. Until then, have a good night, stay safe, happy new year!

The 2025 20-25 Challenge.

This year let’s get better at something by finding a little practice time most days, in my case drawing. - Do your activity for at least 25 minutes, at least 25 days per month.
- Use the hashtag #20252025Challenge on social media etc to track your progress
- Also use the hashtag to cheer on others.

That’s about it!

Have fun with your activities, whatever they may be!

A quotation from Bertrand Russell

The habit of viewing life as a whole is an essential part both of wisdom and of true morality, and is one of the things which ought to be encouraged in education. Consistent purpose is not enough to make life happy, but it is an almost indispensable condition of a happy life. And consistent purpose embodies itself mainly in work.

Bertrand Russell (1872-1970) English mathematician and philosopher
Conquest of Happiness, Part 2, ch. 14 “Work” (1930)

A psychology professor found that when people who were worried about achieving an identity #goal were induced to experience what is called meta-cognitive doubt, they actually became more committed to achieving their goal.
