Just For Fun

Sometimes we want to make things but without any stress or burden that could lead to having no fun with what we are doing, stress us out, or think of it as a waste of time.  On this page you’ll find practical exercises and other interesting ways to draw that are for relaxing, to release stress, for amusement, or just for fun.  These are interesting projects that involve making marks without any need for representation or making things “perfect”, but can still lead to some interesting designs or abstracts that are worth hanging on to, or sharing with others.

Exercise 1 – Continuous Line Drawing

This is a fun exercise where you do not lift the pencil until the entire drawing is finished, called a continuous line drawing.  How the drawing is approached can vary, but in the end the final drawing is hoping to resemble the subject that has been chosen.
