Well I completed the #30daysketchbookchallenge2020 and stuck to the prompts ( mostly) although some of my interpretations were a bit off piste. With the confidence of have drawn for a year, I didn't count it as cheating that some were done in collage, Photoshop, a piece of fabric or a copy of some artwork done previously rather than conventional art materials , it was more important that what I did meant something to me or came from my own images .
Like last year, for January 31st I did a page of thumbnail sketches ( above) showing my responses to the prompts. It was great to share my work and to see the imaginative interpretations of over 5000 participants ( and several of my friends also took part )

The prompt for ' My Favourite Place' was excellently timed for when I was actually at my favourite place, the Chesil Beach visitor centre overlooking Fleet Lagoon ! And I made a good start continuing in February drawing while on holiday in Weymouth.
