The Design Museum does an excellent twitter activity every Monday at lunchtime (UK lunchtime obvs!) where they set you a drawing challenge to complete on your lunch break. Normally it’s things like ‘draw your lunch,’ ‘draw a postbox,”draw the jewelry you’re wearing,’ you know, reasonably normal things to draw.
This was one of their recent ones.
Now I’m not one to shy away from a challenge, so I…. shied away from it for a week or so and finally thought that if there was any egg shaped object you’d need for an egg shaped world, it would be an egg cup!
Pencil Sketch onto a diagonally cut piece of watercolour paper, divided into 3 sections, each of which is scored.
A light watercolour wash.
Words added with old style pen and ink.
Egg world gone over with the pen and ink.
And the finished product!
You can follow the Design Museum on twitter @DesignMuseum and keep an eye out for the #Sketchbreak challenge on Mondays! I’m on twitter @makingthemarrow
