#THEME - Shadows

Monthly themes are completely optional. They will usually be something broad that can be applied to as many drawings as possible. You can implement it in your normal prompts, or you can use the theme as your own prompt.

#PROJECT

Drawing every day is important if we want to see improvement, but sometimes it helps to have a bigger project to motivate us. If you're interested, choose a long-term drawing to work on through March. Go ahead and share your progress here, be it your brainstorming or sketching or the actual drawing process. If you want to go beyond a basic drawing, you can use ink or paint, or digitize it or any type of media you can imagine. Animate it if you feel like really going crazy. If you're having fun with it, go ahead and stick with the same project for the next month.

If you've already got something in mind, go for it. Comment with your plans and occasionally post updates when you want. If you need some inspiration, here are a few random ideas.

!Something beautiful!<

!Something yellow!<

!A detailed background!<

As always, feedback is welcome.

If you've been wanting to draw something but haven't had the time, go grab a paper and a drawing utensil! Start a timer for 5 minutes. Here are the prompts for this week:

• New Year's Resolution

• Puzzle Pieces

• Dog-Knight

• Jenga Tower mid-tumble

• Arendelle

• (Reference) Doggy Kisses (r/aww)
