Dean Lewis Recovery, Faber-Castell Artists’ Pitt pens
Jean Stevens Crow, pen and ink
Icame across the hashtag #DrawingAugust quite by accident while looking at Twitter on August 1, 2012. Two artists – Jean Stevens and Dean Lewis – had decided to set themselves a challenge to make a drawing each day throughout the month of August, and then to share these drawings on Twitter. I thought what a good idea, I could also do with setting myself a drawing challenge. With only a couple of hours left in the day I did a quick pen drawing of myself in the bedroom mirror and shared it to Twitter, adding the hashtag #DrawingAugust.
