Last year, I discovered this wonderful cohort of international artists who took part in this thing called The 100 Day Project.
The idea is simple: Artist Elle Luna picks a 100-day block of time and you pick the activity. Do that same activity for 100 days straight.
Simple idea, but amazing results! Those who I followed during the project were mostly artists, but I’ve heard that others went on 100 dates or wrote down their dreams for 100 days. The possibilities are totally far flung!
Last year, I wanted to create 100 pieces of abstract art. I got quite a bit done, but never finished. Despite my lack of follow-through last year, I want to try again this year.
So what’s my project for 2016? I will be merging my love of photography and my word for the year (delight) to create #100daysofdelightphotography. For 100 days (starting on Tuesday, 4/19), I’ll be posting photos I take of people (both those I know and those I’ll randomly ask) along with their answer to the question “What does delight mean to you?” (Yes, I’m well aware that I’m taking a cue from Humans of New York.)
Want to follow along? Follow me on Instagram, Twitter, or Facebook. I’ll also be posting photos and responses on the blog, but I haven’t decided if I’ll create a blog post each day or a weekly digest yet. I guess I should figure that out soon….
I can’t wait to kick off this project, and I hope you’ll follow along! More than that, though, I hope you’ll participate!
If you could focus on one project for 100 days, what would it be? Share in the comments!

A sneak peek at the project!
oh I’m so excited you’re going to be doing the 100 day project! Looking forward to following along 🙂
Thanks Yuko 🙂

I love Humans of New York, and I think your project is great. I’ve seen some of the ones from your first three weeks, and definitely keep it up. It’s nice to have some positive things on the Internet 🙂 If I could try a project like that for 100 days, I’d probably try to write a short story (maybe a page or two) every day.

Hi, Eli! Thanks so much for your kind words. After the first couple of weeks, my camera broke unfortunately. Right now, I’m at a standstill with this project, but am hoping to pick it up again in some form soon.
PS. So sorry for my delayed response. WordPress, for some reason, just showed your comment to me now.
Aww, sorry, hope it gets fixed soon 😦 and no problem! WordPress does that to me sometimes too
Thank you 😀
