Andy Field is a 34-year-old comedian. He did not know how to draw, and he had not drawn anything since he was at school. But during a comedy festival, he decided to try something new. He started a project to draw one horse every day until he became good at drawing horses.
Field posted short videos of his drawings on TikTok and Instagram. His first video showed him drawing a simple horse with four straight legs. More than one million people watched it. Soon, millions of people watched his drawings every day. He drew horses doing funny things, such as riding skateboards, boxing, and playing electric guitars.
Field is now approaching day 80 of his project. He says he does not worry about making mistakes. Instead, he focuses on what brings him joy. Many people now watch his videos with their children. Other viewers have even started drawing their own horses.
Field plans to end the project after 100 horses. He says that being good at art does not mean making a perfect picture. For him, it means sitting down, enjoying the process, and feeling happy with what he creates.
