For the past several years, I’ve been participating in a challenge with hundreds of artists all over the world who commit to drawing or painting from observation* each day of the month of January and post their work each day to social media. Sharing to social media creates an accountability and it’s a great way to connect with other artists who are also doing the challenge. I find it inspirational to look at the work of the other artists and it’s also a source of encouragement. It’s not always that easy finding or making the time to make are when you have other things to do, like post content online, etc. 😉

I’ll be posting some of my work from this year’s challenge when the challenge is over. In the meantime check out my progress on my Facebook and Instagram pages using the handle @krryderart.com

*Drawing or painting something you see in front of you, not from a photo or screen.
