IDEAS

IDEAS FOR MY BOOK/ZINE:

• draw something big, small and something small big: what about a mouse next to a house? or a great dane next to a pomeranian?
• if you could grow anything, what would you grow? (draw in a pot)
• (make a grid) draw a shape in each square, then pick your favourite shape and try and make it 3D!
• draw an animal with your eyes closed, get your friend to guide you. give it a name
• (draw a figure) draw this person a hat!
• draw or pick a piece of fruit...turn it into a person
• pick a colour, do a drawing in all different of that one colour
• draw the sky
• (empty vending machine) what would you like to see in a  vending machine? draw in the spaces
• draw something within the constraints of a shape, square/circle etc
• draw your day! (a number of empty squares on the page with times at the top, 6am, 7am etc)
• latte art? draw a picture into a latte
• (a figure doing yoga/meditation with thought bubble) what are you thinking about?
• make a new emoji
• what is your favourite piece of art? re-create it (include images of famous pieces of art work in a gallery setting?)
• you're having a clear out, draw 10 things you would throw away
• you're going somewhere, what are you taking in your backpack? where are you going?
• maybe a 'make a mess' page? instructions to find materials to make a mess with
• prompts throughout: use bright colours/'you don't have to stick to the shapes'/use different materials/'don't worry about making it look nice'/'be messy if you like'

NEXT STEPS?

the idea I have in mind to use collage, hand drawn and digital all combined together. I think i'd like to include character design into it somehow, as I think this could make it quite fun and playful. so I think my next steps are probably to start sketching some characters and thinking about how i'd like to layout my pages.
