Day 1 challenge: Branch out your drawing

“

- Welcome to day one of the five day drawing challenge. Today's drawing challenge theme is Branch Out Your Drawing. Imagination can take many forms. And one way it's leveraged is by seeing what really isn't there. You imagine something in your mind, then you draw what you see. That is at the heart of today's drawing challenge. Growing up you did this with clouds, you'd look in the sky, see a cloud, and associate it with something based on its shape. This challenge is using the same principle of shape recognition. Using the provided reference sheet of the tree without leaves, draw what you see in the negative spaces between the branches. There is no right or wrong way to do this exercise. And there certainly isn't any rules. What you draw depends on what association you make with each negative shape. So have fun with this. And try to fill in as many spaces as you can. I look forward to seeing how you creatively solve this challenge and be sure to share your drawing on social media…
