Drawing Day

Drawing Day 2010 is June 4, 2011. Drawing Day will be held on the first Saturday of June each year. Due to the various time zone differences across the world, many events start friday and are open all weekend.


One day a year, the world stops to remember that joy we had when we first picked up a pencil and created our first piece of art - that's what Drawing Day is all about. The goal for Drawing Day is simple - to create enough drawings to make some noise worldwide for the sake of art. 2008 was the first year of this initiative. Our goal is definitely a long-shot, but we continue to aim for 1 million drawings worldwide. We have no precise measure to know if we reach this goal. If we come close we will all definitely know. Even if we reach 10% of our goal in the first year of this initiative, it will be a great achievement but we will continue aiming for the magic million.

After doing vexels lately, I just got the time to hold my pens and sketchpad because of this. I submitted two drawings only. I did the first one for two and a half hours, I guess, because of the lines. I like the last one without colors but it looks pale. I guess I'll redraw it without doing the hundred lines on the background next time.
