Welcome to Inspire Me Thursday...   A weekly dose of inspiration for
mixed media artists and creative types to nurture their muses and CREATE!

Single Line Drawings

How about some doodling? (Big, huge wall is optional.) Laying down some quick, spontaneous lines can really get those creative juices flowing and can be done just about anywhere — in your car at a red light, waiting in line at the post office, at the coffee shop, wherever and whenever the mood strikes.

Check out the super cool drawings of Karen Jinks and Sarah Smith. This week, let’s give it a try and make some single line drawings of our own: grab a piece of paper and a pen or pencil, start drawing and don’t lift up off the page until your piece is complete.

Share your drawing on your blog, then post the link* in the comments section of this post so we can go check it out.

* To ensure it is easy for us to find your artwork, please provide a link to a static page that will always show your submission, and not your website’s main page.

    Wow thanks for the link, that was the last thing I expected to see but the credit should go to Sarah as it was her drawing that inspired me to have a go in the first place - it’s a lot of fun, everyone should try it!

    Thanks for the link as well. I didn’t think that my little drawing would go on to be a topic for IMT :) Mine was just a simple one line sketch but Kala’s was amazing! Her drawing inspired me to try a more detailed “one liner”….it’s great how we can all inspire each other :)

    Oh…Melanie…LOVE the new look here. I’m so glad this project has become a great success! Cheers!
