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.

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.
Image description: A drawing of shapes created by thick, black, curved lines that takes up the whole piece of paper. Each shape is coloured with a different bright coloured marker. The shapes are somewhat similar to how beach rocks end up when they wash ashore.
I have many many different versions of drawings like this – a figure, back on, standing on a hill, reaching their arms towards the sky.
I don’t know exactly why I am drawn (ha!) to draw this so often but I am and I do.
Today, I experimented with creating this image from dots.
I really like how the sky turned out but I think that, next time, I’ll make the figure taller with longer arms.
A drawing of a person standing on a hill, arms outstretched toward the starry sky. This drawing is made entirely of dots. Curving horizontal lines of green dots for the hill, vertical lines of blue dots for the sky, clusters of yellow dots of stars, and a three triangles and a circle of black dots for the figure.
