zzzz is a drawing project I began on May 4, 2021, a few months after my first daughter was born. Each drawing is made while she is taking a nap. To determine how the drawing will be made, I flip a coin. If it lands on heads, the negative space is black. If it lands on tails, the negative space is white.
This project has the following parameters:
- A nap is a drawing session. Only one drawing can be made during a session. Multiple drawings could be made each day.
- Drawing begins once my daughter falls asleep. If she wakes up before I start, then I missed my opportunity to make a drawing.
- A drawing must be completed before the day is finished and fully resolved before the next one is started.
- Each drawing is labeled on the back with the date, the time I finished, and is numbered.
