This was an excellent source of inspiration. My own subject matter was running thin and this is just what I needed. Found myself spending more time than the allotted 5 minutes. Draw with no expectation for a perfect result and really focus on the finished lines.

Student Spotlight:

Student Liz Cleere's 9 Days Of Sketching results!

Liz says:

"I've completed your fantastic #9daysofsketching challenge, and want to tell you what a voyage of discovery it's been. I gave up drawing and painting when I left school 50 years ago and wondered if I still had it in me.
These nine sketches have proved to me that I still love drawing and have re-awoken the love I have for sitting over a sketch pad while time stands still!"

FAQ

  • Why is the challenge free?

Like many people, as a child she was told she would never be any good at this. She didn't listen and now she wants to help you too. If you enjoy this free challenge - all we ask is that you share it and tell others so they can take part too. Thank you so much!
