(Unofficial) Sketchbook Rule #1: Whenever you are given fresh flowers, always DRAW THEM! Or in this case, paint them with a chunky brush! 🌺 Pssst you can pick up your copy of Sketchbook Dares and get drawing this weekend at MoCCA Fest where I’ll be signing 11-12 Sat & Sun at the Abrams table. Springtime inspiration beckons! 🌸 . . . #sketchbookdares #sketchbook #lauraleegulledge #idareyou #artnerdare #sketchbookart #watercolor #painting #illustration #art #creativeplay #springtime #moccafest2018 #moccafest #abramsnoterie #abramsbooks #flowers #paintingflowers #stopandsmelltheflowers #dianeackerman #quotes (at Metropolitan West)

This year I thought it’d be funny to send seemingly BLANK holiday cards because the future feels so unclear...but then SURPRISE it’s really a rainbow scratch board! ✍️🌈Because despite all the unknowns of the moment I trust there are beautiful visions & unexpected blessings yet to be revealed...🙏✨Wishing you all a safe & happy holiday with unexpected delights! 💖🎄🎀#scratchboard #livedrawing #artnerdare #gratefulpresence #holidaycard #creativecards #happyholidays https://www.instagram.com/p/CJO3d4WliIF/?igshid=c7s9vbbq5cfe

#shareyourdare I love this camping tradition of playing a DRAWING GAME! We did the Penplay Dare in my Sketchbook Dares. Our starting word & theme was Spider Palace, featuring little scenes of life at our new cottage. How meta to draw with @e_vallery who I made the sample drawing with in the book. This game is fun to try with an Artner!✍️🕷 . . . #sketchbookdares #lauraleegulledge #drawingchallenge #drawoutyourinnerartist #drawing #drawinggame #penplay #drawingdare #camping #campingtradition #spiderpalace #cottagelife #artnerlove #artnerdare #heartners (at Dolly Sods Wilderness Area)

My official recap from being the art teacher at the Park School the past six months is now up in my blog! Here are a few of the pics: Possibility Dare, mini comics of course, 3-D marble mazes, reflective drawing, and mixed media illustration. I’m so grateful I got to be part of this community! Plus it sure was nice to have my own art classroom again. Keep on making, and stay inspired you beautiful weirdo storytellers you!🎨✨ . . . #parkschool #artclass #artteachersofinstagram #artteacher #teachingartist #charlottesville #artnerdare #creativity #artprojects (at The Park School)

Comics artist & author Jennifer Hayden accepted my Artner Dare—to illustrate a song! Jennifer calls Sketchbook Dares “a safe haven for hesitant beginners, a nudge for new artists to increase their commitment, and a mind-opener for practicing artists who may be stuck in their ways.” You can learn more about how she got out of her comfort zone in my latest blog post.

This weird warm weather sure is nice for playing drawing games outside with an Artner or Heartner! ❤️ Also, this was my first time drawing in an actual copy of SKETCHBOOK DARES. So exciting! Now a while new journey begins. . . . #drawing #drawinggame #sketchbook #sketchbookdares #artner #artnerlove #drawingdare #artnerdare #book #bookstagram #creativejourney #yesdaysoff #getoutside (at Champion Brewing Company)
