Description:

So...I was TRYING to draw a fox in socks for an atc swap I wanted to give a go. Well after several attempts I had to admit defeat. I just can't draw that tiny(yet...I will continue to practice). In one final and desperate attempt, I decided I would look at the picture in the book and draw it without watching what I was doing...hoping some sort of magical drawing instinct would take over...and it turned our BAD. BUT it did give me a good hard laugh.

And that's how this swap was born!!!!

You will make a hand drawn postcard for one partner. You can draw whatever you desire...BUT you CANNOT watch as you draw!!! So you will basically be doing a blind drawing!!! Let's see how close you can get!!!!

On the back include a cheery hello and tell your partner what it's supposed to be.

I think this should give us all a good laugh!!!

To join: must have at least 10 type 2 swaps completed and rated...average rating if 4.9...and no ones or threes in past 4 months.

This is actually a real drawing exercise Made popular by the book drawing With the right side of the brain called contour drawing, very interesting method.
