The 30 Day Drawing Challenge is officially over! It was definitely more difficult than I thought it would be. Life, obviously, gets in the way of drawing/scanning/blogging but I gained so much from the challenge. I learned that you all are seriously talented (even if you don’t consider yourself an artist or work in a creative job environment). I also really got into the groove of pulling out my sketchbook and drawing daily. It’s a habit that I just have to force myself into. Anyways, I hope you all enjoyed and feel free to take on the challenge if you didn’t this month! My banner was to play on the fact that I technically didn’t do all 30 days:

Here’s Steven‘s congratulatory drawing:

And Carley‘s!

Day 26: Something You’re Scared Of

Randi contributed and said…needles!

Day 27: Someone you love! I already drew Adam before I thought I’d draw Desh, my dog. He’s way cuter in real life.

Randi drew his best friend!

Day 28: Draw something you’d like. I’d like to travel.

Day 29: A place you want to go. I said I’d want to go BACK TO LONDON!

Carley said she’d love to go to Paris!

That’s the past few days! Tomorrow is THE LAST DAY OF THE CHALLENGE! Email me at hi@allisonlehman.com anytime before noon tomorrow with your “congrats banner” for participating or finishing the challenge. Feel free to include why you didn’t finish, what you gained from it, or anything you learned throughout the process. Hope your weekends are going well :)

Attention blog readers:

I totally dropped the ball with this 30 Day Drawing Challenge. I haven’t posted May 26, 27, OR 28th. I’ll be posting a compilation post tomorrow (er…today?) at 3pm EST with drawings from the past few days. SO, if you have any drawings or want to “catch up,” from the days you missed, submit them to me (email me at hi@allisonlehman.com) by 12pm EST, Sunday May 29th! I have a few from you sitting in my email inbox and I’ll be adding my own too.

Hope you’re all having a lovely, extended weekend!

Today’s challenge (although a bit late) was to draw scenery! This is what I mostly see all day…

Steven drew his view out of the airplane! How nice.

Randi drew something nice and natural!

Tomorrow’s challenge is to draw something you DON’T like. If you want yours included, email me at hi@allisonlehman.com by 7AM EST tomorrow morning.

Today’s challenge…draw a couple! I chose the Jetsons because I used to love that cartoon growing up.

Tomorrow’s challenge is to draw scenery. If you want your drawing included in my blog post tomorrow, email me at hi@allisonlehman.com by midnight tonight!

Oops. I failed the challenge. Here are the last drawings all combined into one. I was out of town visiting family and friends (and having a wonderful time). So while it’s an excuse, that is life.

Tomorrow’s challenge is to draw a couple. Whatever that means? If you want your drawing included, email me by 2pm tomorrow afternoon at hi@allisonlehman.com!

Today’s challenge was to draw something you want! I wasn’t able to get my drawing in (I’m blogging from Illinois/my brother’s high school graduation party). BUT Benji and Carley drew! Benji drew that he wants TODAY!

Carley said after being diagnosed with a fish allergy…all she wants is to eat fish!

Tomorrow’s challenge is to draw something you miss. Email me at hi@allisonlehman.com if you want yours posted here tomorrow! I probably won’t get to posting mine until Monday when I’m back home so the more the merrier!

10 more days! I can’t believe it’s already the 20th. Today’s challenge was to draw something orange. For me, I think a drawing or design can be very powerful when you evoke the visualization of color (even if it’s black and white). I drew an orange construction/traffic cone. They’re usually orange.

Benji drew Michelangelo!

Tomorrow’s challenge is to draw something you want. Email me at hi@allisonlehman.com by noon tomorrow (5/21) if you want yours included in my post

Something new! I drew my NEW love of Yoga. I’ve done yoga before and thought it to be too fluffy and easy but now that I’m doing P90X, I find it really challenging and I love it!

Benji drew a new hoodie.

Tomorrow’s challenge is to draw something orange! If you want yours included in tomorrow’s post, email me at hi@allisonlehman.com by midnight tonight!

DOODLE! That was today’s challenge. Sometimes I think my brain thinks in doodles.

Benji‘s doodle. He said, “Video killed the radio star.”

And a new contributor, Crystal!

Tomorrow’s challenge is to draw something new (whatever that means to you). If you want your drawing to be included in tomorrows post, just email me at hi@allisonlehman.com by midnight tonight!
