Dylan my son, Happy birthday.

I'm creating a drawing a day, just for the art of it.
Today's is my son, drawn from life not a photo, he is two today!

I'm creating a drawing a day, for two years, for practice and fun.

This is yesterday's.

I'm creating a drawing a day, just for the art of it, and sharing an art tip too.
Today's drawing is my son Dylan.
Today's tip: It's more important that the colour work well together, than that it have anything to do with the subject. I have drawn my son with a brown and a blue pen. They look good together and have nothing to do with my pink and blond son!

I'm creating a drawing a day for a year, just for the art of it.

I'm much more than half way so this drawing is dedicated to all the people who have kept me going with your comments and likes. Thank you.

Dylan, my son.

Today's is my children snuggled up together.

It's coloured pencils on brown paper. Caran d' ache watersoluable pencils and Derwent Inktense but I have decided to leave them as pencil lines and not take a brush and wash the colour around. Included an earlier version too.

The latest drawing in my mission to create a drawing a day for 2016.
Here is a drawing of my son. Apologies if anyone is getting board of me drawing my kids but I'm found of them and they are always around!

A drawing a day, why am I doing it?

I'm a planner, I have my whole year, and indeed my whole life worked out on paper (I often have to alter the small stuff but the big stuff stays) yet I decided to do the drawing a day idea on impulse! I'm finding out WHILE I am doing it WHY I am doing it!

It's not for commercial gain, I haven't worked out how to make it pay out money, but it does seem to be paying off.

• It makes me draw and then I feel good.
• It puts something solely for me in my day of nappies, a lot of laundry, and school runs.
• Many of my friends seem to be following the results with enjoyment.
• If I really keep it up all year my drawing is bound to improve.
• I was inspired by Dominic Roberts doing it and some other artists I know have been inspired by me.
• It adds a little to the general level of light in the world, something on your computer that is not bad news. X

Thank you, Kirsteen

You may have noticed I didn't start this on the first of January, so I'm catching up so here are four drawings!
