21 Day Challenge: Day 2 "The Continuous Line"


Today's challenge is to draw the following with a continuous line (without lifting the pen): A happy face, Unicycle, Dog, and Hand with Soda Bottle.

I made it extra hard on myself by trying to connect all four.  Try this style out yourself.  It's quite fun!

From the Sketchbook

I've been developing the habit of taking my sketchbook with me wherever I go. Admittedly its a habit thats hard to keep! Here are some recent sketches from my time at an airport and free time I've had between customers when drawing caricatures in public. For some inspiration on daily doodling, check out this video on my main blog. Have a comment or question? Leave one below!
