This is the beginning of a thirty day drawing challenge that will involve one wide-open "assignment" per day and allow participants to interpret the tasks however they want. The original purpose of this challenge was to force myself to draw/sketch/paint/whatever a little bit every day, and I figured there might be other people who would like to play along. I have intentionally kept assignments extremely vague so that they can take a few minutes or hours, be interpreted literally or abstractly, etc. I will share each day's blog post (like this one) on facebook and twitter, and I encourage you, if you want to play, to share your results and @ or tag me. When I complete each day's challenge, I will post my drawing at the bottom of the corresponding assignment blog post (like this one) and on social media. I hope some of you will enjoy this, as well! Without further ado, the Day one assignment is...
1) Your bed
I did a 15 minute conte crayon sketch, with my 2 yr old drawing in bed next to me as the subject. He also contributed some scribbles while I was on the phone.
