Choose an item or person (this can be you in a mirror if you like) to draw without looking down at your paper or lifting your pen from the paper.

Warning...this will not come out looking pretty...

Check out my attempts below. A book cover with a face on it makes a great subject. 

Submit up to 5 different blind contours. 

• Look up your favorite animal, or use a picture of a pet for this one! 
• Draw your picture without lifting your pencil off the page. You can look, just don't break the continuous line!
• Color it in when you're done:)

My reference picture:

step one, continuous line:

step two color it in! :

Drawing cubes is fun and satisfying. The more cubes the better! This is a fun, relaxing, abstract art style. Try it!

1. Begin by drawing a few cubes. As many as you want spaced however you want!

2. Use a ruler or straight edge to connect the cube's corners with straight lines. Don't think too much about this, just start and stop drawing when you feel like it.

3. Color it in if you want!

It's so fun to draw faces. Sometimes this is waaay easier than drawing a whole person. Here are a few rows of eggs for you to fill in with whatever weird and wonderful faces you, please.

1. Across the top of your page do a looping oval pattern! Continue until the page is covered.

2. Add faces! Feeling stuck? Try using the "roll for a face" guide for inspiration.

Go from abstract to ideas!

Use a non-toxic washable marker to color your fingertip and the finger's outer edge. Do a couple of colors if you're feeling dangerous. Stamp all over a blank piece of paper with no particular pattern- overlap is good. 

Go in with a pen or marker of another color to turn these smudges into something! 

Here's mine:

step 1:

step 2:

Only 5% of the ocean has been explored, which means any fish you draw could be down there! Try this easy doodle activity.

STEP ONE:

Using a marker, pencil, or pen draw a big loopy shape that closes. 

STEP TWO:

Turn all of your loops into fish! Blub blub.

Doodle using your initials! Great for relieving stress. 

 Here are two methods you can try.

1. Fill a page with different styles of your initials

2.

Try starting with your initials, large and simple.

Now decorate them! 

Try this relaxing doodle that will look incredible with little effort. There are two ways you can do this mission- find both versions and instructions in the mission's activities. 

***librarian note*** I had so much fun making the example piece for this one, it came out so cool!

Use one of these "roll for a face" templates to make one or more weird works of art, no dice? Use this auto dice rolling site, https://www.calculator.net/dice-roller.html 

Find more templates in the activity section.

Begin this doodle challenge by making a shape on your paper in pencil!

Use a star, heart, or bubble letter. You'll be erasing this later so don't push too hard.

Fill your shape in with a pen or marker. Anything goes here it doesn't have to be good it just has to fill space! Doodle your heart out!

step 1: Make your outline in pencil:

step 2:Fill in, and erase the outline:

Investigative journalists dig deep to work to expose the world of crimes, corruption, and more. Use your investigative skills to determine whether these facts are true or false. Dig deep and see what you can uncover!

Join us on July 25 for a slime-based study into mixing colors! We'll be making plain cloud slime and then using it as a canvas to mix colors on. We'll use a website that converts the hex codes of colors into the exact formula needed to make them. For example, we can make neon green by using 25% cyan, 25% green, and 50% yellow! 

Register online on activity one!

Color theory is integral to good art- and what makes a better canvas to practice mixing colors on than slime?? Join us for some cloud slime fun and experimentation with color mixing!
