Do you like Fun?!
Hi Kids,
Last night I came across this “little idea” with a big goal.
Saturday the 7th June 2008 is Drawing Day!! wooooo!! PLUS, my birthday, fancy i know!
The goal is to get 1 million drawings in a day, for the sake of art, and good fun of course.
This is an international event, and the first one of its kind.
“One day a year, the world stops to remember that joy we had when we first picked up a pencil and created our first piece of art ~ that’s what Drawing Day is all about. The goal for Drawing Day is simple ~ to create enough drawings to make some noise worldwide for the sake of art.” (Drawing Day)
Check out more by clicking the image above, you will see that The Bub is one of the gold supporters, so I hope you all will get involved!
I think a good way we could all get together is to tag our drawings DD08 that day…. I’ll host a group for it….... (gets emailing)

So sharpen those pencils, break out the Crayola Caddy and get ready to draw!
Much Love and Scribbles,

Oh samedog – and I always thought you weren’t the brightest crayon in the box!! ;p
@ TBO …. as long as the drawings don’t have to be all that good – I’m in. I haven’t progressed much further since the first day I picked up a pencil …. so it’s not that hard to remember!! LOL!!

Oooh me! I like fun!
I’ll go for a million of my own!
The only problem I can see is that if this gets too popular, we might run out of paper.

Dunno where it is now. I coloured over dark bits with the light coloured markers so they went all funny, and the dark coloured ones dried up from use. And the crayons snapped.
WAAAAAAHHHHH!! :(
