Crayonuary®, the 30-Day challenge starts on February 1st and ends on March 1st.

This 30-day challenge is to introduce you to the simple act of drawing every day (art journaling) and using crayons it makes it so much easier than with any other art tool (crayon journaling).

Crayonuary® rules:

Equipment needed: Any type of wax crayon(s) and paper, preferably a 30 or more-page sketchbook or pad. (see Crayonuary® Tools)

How it works: Make a drawing with a crayon* or two or three. It can be as simple as a circle or a line or as complex as a futuristic city. It can take 2 minutes to do or 2 hours, there is no time limit. Just do it every day for the next 30 days.

Examples of crayon journaling can be seen above, click on the image and then use your right and left arrow keys to navigate through the images.

Post them on any social media account you want and hashtag Crayonuary (#crayonuary) or email them to me at twelvesquaredART@gmail.com and I will post them for you. If you want to remain anonymous or just keep them to yourself that is okay too. The important thing is to draw.

Note: You must use crayons. There is a psychological attachment we have with crayons that can free you from the fear of drawing.

Wax On!
