Drawing for Fun

Well, truth be told, most of the drawing I do is for fun but this is a little different.

A good friend of mine bought us both a copy of Johanna Basford’s 30 Days of Creativity so we could work on it together.

So I get the fun of drawing from prompts AND the fun of working on this at the same time as my friend.

Giving my brain a break

My brain is being a bit of a jerk today so I spent a bit of time listening to an audiobook and drawing and colouring this.

It helped a bit.
