A lot of people have been joining our Drawing A Day challenge. While most people prefer to keep their drawings private, a few brave and fabulous people have been posting their drawings to Facebook and Instagram, tagging them #seattleartleague and #drawingaday so we can all enjoy them. Below are few of my favorites posted by friends of the League, and the full collection of my own drawings.

Daily Drawing Challenge #7: “Well that was a dumb idea.” This is a drawing of a little piece of my home town of Alameda, CA: the Spite House. Apparently a man named Charles Froling inherited some land but had the bulk of it taken away by the city in order to build a street. In a fit of righteous indignation, he used the remaining land to build an extremely skinny house. The house – which is only about 10 feet wide – is something of a local legend, so it’s possible that it worked out OK in the end. Even so, I maintain that this was not the best use of the land or the building. The folly of the house also extended to the materials I used in the drawing, as I was sure that the paper in my oatmeal sketchbook was strong enough to handle a little ink wash without buckling. Close inspection of the results will show that this was not the case.
