Daily Drawing: A New Year's Resolution

Having taken part in #inktober2020 last year, I decided to carry on with a daily drawing.  First I finished up all the prompts from #drawcember2018 that I didn't finish, then moved onto the #drawcember2020 prompts.  I am currently working my way through the #inktober2019 prompts as I didn't take part last year.  Even though I often copy a drawing or picture or follow an online tutorial, I find that I am becoming more confident in my abilities.  Here are all my drawings following the #drawcember2020 prompts although, I finished on 27th December with mine.

WOYWW 603: Happy Holidays

A brief contribution to the last WOYWW before Christmas courtesy of Julia at Stamping Ground.  I am sure you are all busy getting ready for Christmas even if it will be a much smaller, shorter celebration than usual.

WOYWW 602: Holidays Approach

 Welcome to the weekly Wednesday link up with Julia at Stamping Ground and the gals and guys at WOYWW.

A huge thank you to (from top left clockwise) Jan (LLJ), Jane, Shaz (silverwolf) and Margaret (Glitter and Glue) for the lovely hand made cards that I have received.  This is where I confess that I have made very few Christmas cards this year, apart from samples, and haven't posted any yet.  Sorry folks but the holidays seem to have snuck up on me while I wasn't paying attention.

My desk is all ready this morning to complete my latest daily December drawing.  The prompt is Reindeer so I may be a while lol. Here are the previous 7.

Off to work shortly for the last Wednesday of 2020 and really looking forward to two weeks off.  I'll be round to visit in the morning.  Stay safe and happy WOYWW.

WOYWW 601: The Post Crop Flop

So here is my desk today as I get ready to do my daily December drawing as part of #drawcember2020.  Joining in again with the weekly blog hop and desk share at Stamping Ground.

It was so good to catch up with so many deskers at the two virtual crops on Saturday.  Also good to put more faces to names of people I consider friends.  Thank you Julia for organising these events.  About the only crafting I managed during the crops was my daily drawing, too busy listening, chatting and catching up otherwise - just like an actual WOYWW crop.

Neither crop fitted onto one screen.

And the evening get together was even larger.

With deskers joining in from the USA and Canada.

I thought I'd show you my December drawings so far. 

I'll be round to visit tomorrow morning as I have a meeting after school this evening.  Stay safe and Happy WOYWW everyone.

WOYWW 600: Happy Landmark Share!

Welcome to the landmark 600th week of WOYWW on Julia's Stamping Ground.  I haven't been sharing my desk for anywhere near that long but I am so glad to join in today!  Congratulations Julia on such a long running blog hop and creating such a tribe/family/clan!

After a brief break from the daily drawing while very busy sample making, I started following the drawcember2020 prompts yesterday and have taken out my book today ready to spend 5-10 minutes drawing and relaxing before I leave for work.

I have been teaching from home via google classrooms for the last week, as hubby went for a Covid test on 23rd November and we have still not heard back from that despite much chasing.  He therefore went for another test on Monday this week.  The results for that came back negative yesterday, so I can finally return to teaching face to face today.  It has been very frustrating all round.  Now I just need to catch up with all the marking.

Here is a close up of yesterday's drawing in case you haven't seen it on Facebook.

Here are the prompts in case anyone else fancies joining in.  I have decided to finish after #28 and miss out #26 so there will be 27 drawings to finish off my first Daler-Rowney cartridge paper book.  Luckily I have another one to start catching up with inktober2019 after these are complete.  Thank you Margaret (Glitterandglue) for the fabulous Christmas card which came through the letterbox yesterday.  I am afraid that I shall not be sending out cards this year, but will make a charitable donation instead.  Stay safe and happy 600th WOYWW.  I can't wait to see everyone at the Zoom crop on Saturday!  I'll be around to visit after work this evening or tomorrow morning.
