"Choose to follow scent,
when your sight can’t guide you well.
Many senses left."

An experiment in blind sketching. I made the first 2 sketches without looking at the paper. What a surprise!

We generally make these eyes closed drawings in a round of people and one person says what to draw. I only ever played it using animals.

3 April 2025 - Daily Drawing Day 93
#20252025Challenge
Tried my hand at blind drawing (not looking at the canvas) and tried to draw me sat in bed looking tired at my watch. The result is quite abstract and surreal. With the exception of changing colours and one layer swap, I kept my view of the screen blocked (which is why the thickness went weird and I think I drew big chunks off the canvas). That being said, I can still recognise features of my bedroom, like the bookcase and wardrobe.
Also I did this at around 4 in the morning because I'm going to be busy after work today and want to make sure I had all the time I needed ... I'm knackered now.

The 2025 20-25 Challenge.

This year let’s get better at something by finding a little practice time most days, in my case drawing. - Do your activity for at least 25 minutes, at least 25 days per month.
- Use the hashtag #20252025Challenge on social media etc to track your progress
- Also use the hashtag to cheer on others.

That’s about it!

Have fun with your activities, whatever they may be!

Drawing, programming, dancing, cooking, make up, reading, languages, gardening, mastering high fives, sewing, astrophysics, vcr clock setting ...

#BlindDrawing from about 6 months ago. I usually discard a lot of my blind drawings because they are exercises but I still really like this one. #experimentaldrawing #artplay #artexperiment #drawing #art #sketch

I had the flashlight on on my phone to go get my laundry in the basement and somehow managed to do this without looking at my phone #blinddrawing
