February Art Club

It’s February! This month we’re joining in the February Art Club. It’s started by illustrators Grace Taylor and Lisa Koesterke, who have set a list of prompts for each day of the month.

Here’s the first few drawings we’ve posted so far. The prompt for February 1 was “cryptid,” which we learned is an animal that might be imaginary (or not). Examples include land animals (terrestrial) like Bigfoot, Yeti, Honey Island swamp monster, and the Mongolian death worm, to name a few; aquatic creatures such as the Loch Ness monster, Kraken, or giant anaconda; and less common winged creatures like the Jersey Devil, Mothman or Thunderbird.

February 2nd’s doodle prompt was herbs, so we drew a handful: basil, chives, parsley, dill, mint, and rosemary.

Here’s a friend from SPACE on day 3:

This self portrait for day 5 is inspired by one of our favorite artists.

Hope you can join us on instagram and draw along with the February Art Club too! Post your doodles with the hashtag #februaryartclub and tag us #kidcandoodle so we can see your drawings! Happy Doodling!

Inktober doodles

Every October, artists worldwide take part in a daily drawing challenge called “The Inktober Initiative,” set forth by Mr Jake Parker. The goal is to doodle everyday for 31 days, and share the art on social media with the tags #inktober #inktober2017 and #jakeparker.

This year, I decided to join in on the fun.

 


There are prompts to get you going, or you can choose to do your own thing. The list for 2017 is as follows:
