Shaun's "The Design of Life" Challenge


I have just finished up my latest drawing, "The Design of Life" for Lauren. I had played with sketching some trees earlier this month, and they seemed to sum up what it is to design for life, and they look great.

So I scoured the internet for some inspirational quotes, built those into my drawing and hey presto here it is. This month I was excited to use my new pigment pens which are more water resistant and don't fade as much over time. On top of that I bought 3 different thicknesses to allow me to get some variety in the lines that I use in my drawings.

Thank you to Lauren for the subject, here's a quick timelapse video of how the drawing came together.

  1. Shaun, you actually created two works of art at the same time. One final drawing and the stop motion video. Both are thoroughly enjoyable. My favorite parts are "go out on a limb" and "remember your roots" great connecting to the metaphor of the tree as well as expressing your world view. Thanks for sharing!!
