Wednesdays are “see and respond” days in our 30 day challenge. Two weeks ago, the challenge was to follow specific instructions for making Sol LeWitt’s wall drawing #118.

Paper or black painted panel is a nearly suitable replacement, if a black wall is not present for you to draw on. Ask your mother.
