Oops I’m a little late on this one. I took the day off to spend time with my family and realized about 15 minutes ago that I had forgotten to schedule this post. Anyways, here are our favorite book characters (books that aren’t movies). Mine’s my favorite book as a kid, Mandy by Julie Andrews. If it IS a movie, I’m not aware of it. Also, it’s the worst drawing of the challenge yet. I drew it in literally 2 minutes as I explained to my parents what a blog was. Love it.

Steven and Benji‘s drawings are below. How amazing is Benji’s?

Tomorrow’s challenge: favorite word. YAY! I get to draw typography! If you want your drawing included here on my blog tomorrow, email me at hi@allisonlehman.com Enjoy your weekend!

BFFs! Today’s challenge was to draw your best friend. I drew Adam, obviously.

Steven and Benji drew their wives! Looks like we’re doing something right.

Tomorrows challenge: draw your favorite character from a book (only books that have NOT been made into movies…because then we’d just end up drawing celebrities or other cartoons). If you want to share your drawing on my blog, just email it to me by midnight tonight to hi@allisonlehman.com. Happy drawing!

Underground City. Certain things remind me that I need to draw more.

I know I say this every time I design wedding invitations but this set is really one of my favorites. The couple, who will be married this summer on Lake Geneva, decided they wanted to communicate to their guests the importance of the lake. They achieved this by adding hand drawn sketches of the Riviera building and the boat that their cocktail hour will be held. I’m excited to photograph these professionally and add the other design elements that I contributed later this summer. Check back to see their creative and beautiful escort card idea!
