A Comedian Draws One Horse Every Day for Fun

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.

since he was at school= 從學生時代開始，一直到故事所述的過去時間點until he became good at= 直到他變得擅長於……為止

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.

such as= 例如；像是（用來列舉具體事例）

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.

Instead= 相反地；取而代之（表示轉折與對比）

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.
