365 Days of Boys

Thursday, February 16, 2012






I thought this was a pretty cool concept for an art project/etsy store, called 365 days of boys.  I couldn't find out what the artists name was but on her etsy profile page, she goes into detail about this project and how she will do an illustration of a boy each day for 365 days, and will sell her original art work simultaneously.  The back story to this concept is very intriguing, you can read more about it here, but here is a little snippet from her etsy profile.  

I recently moved to Arnhem, the Fashion city of The Netherlands. The boys seem to be much prettier and eccentric here then in the village I was born. It makes me want to paint their awesome features, their jawbone structures and angular chins."








Cool huh?   If anything, it will be fun to follow along with her, and watch the growth of these  captivating illustrations.  I wonder what boy she will create on my birthday (Aug. 31)?

  1. Super cool! With so much geared toward girls in terms of design and clothing, this idea is brilliant!

  3. Very cool concept! How did you ever find this? I like when people challenge themselves to create each day, every day for a whole year (like Erin). Have you seen the one Lisa Cogdon is doing? One hand lettering illustration every day for a year, which can be seen on her blog (http://lisacongdon.com/blog/). Pretty cool.
