When I finished it I needed a new challenge. So I set myself the challenge of explaining something with a sketch — as explaining is a handy skill. Over 2013 -14 I posted one sketchplanation a day. Hopefully you’ll see some improvement. Since completing the 365, and the arrival of a second small child, I’ve migrated to once per week, so you won’t be bombarded.
The best way to browse is through the archive. Or explore via some of my common tags:
Cognitive bias
Framework
Words
What’s the difference between
Food and drink
Ideas
Drawing
Nature
Observation
Investing
