Drawing For Fun
Our kids love to draw…as is evidenced by the many reams of paper that have been flying through our house over the last few months. Pencils, crayons and more are scattered everywhere. All.the.time.
One site that we’ve been visiting and having a lot of fun with lately has been Draw With Rich ~ a blog by the Pick and Draw game creator Rich Davis. We love his drawing game and Rich has some great blog posts showing step-by-step instructions on how to draw other things…like doodlebugs.
Here are some of the great tips he has on his blog:
- drawing basics
- shading in drawings
- more shading examples
- line angles {drawing chins}
- drawing cartoon characters
- drawing a bird
- Doodlebugs…they’ll be all over your house!!
I subscribed to his site by email so that I get updates on his fun tutorials. Be sure to read his post on why October 25th is a special day for him ~ God is so good!!

Awesome :-) Our kids will love doing this. I keep planning on drawing with them and get caught up with teaching other subjects.
Love you!

I passed this link on to Rich. :)
He's a fabulous artist and great with kids. My daughter loved taking a class from him.
The Pick and Draw game makes a great stocking stuffer, too. :)

Sounds like a great website. I've been reading a lot about how linked early reading and early drawing can be. In fact, I reviewed a book by Dr. Gentry that talks about those links.

Now, off to see if I can learn how to draw!! (I didn't get many artistic genes!)
