Having trouble coming up with something to draw? No worries - while you'll eventually learn how to start from a tiny seed of a thought and gradually nurture it into a complex concept to explore through design and illustration, it's perfectly fine not to be there just yet.
For now though, here's an idea that might interest you.
No Take, Only Throw!
Submit for this prompt in the next to earn a unique avatar!Does your pet have a toy they just refuse to part with? One they carry around with them everywhere- you know, the one you tuck into the carrier with them to give them comfort on visits to the vet? Clearly, such an item would be of immense value to them, and they're fortunate no one else is interested in taking it for them. At least, no one with thumbs.
Well, too bad. It turns out their prized possession is actually an artifact of immense intrinsic value, and the secret's out. Treasure hunters, government agents, and third-rate adventure youtubers are heading straight for you!
But worry not, your pet always knew this day would come... and they're ready. So, show us. How will your pet stave off these waves of thieves and keep what's theirs?
This prompt is part of our special "Pet Week" Promptathon, where all of the prompts are themed around our pets. You are encouraged to use your own pet as a focus if you have one, but if not, feel free to use ours! You'll find many photos of our beautiful Sweater Sleeves here - we've been posting one each day for the last six months for just this purpose.
Faber Castell PITT Artist Pens
Like the Staedtlers, these also come in a set of multiple weights - the ones we use are F. One useful thing in these sets however (if you can't find the pens individually) is that some of the sets come with a brush pen (the B size). These can be helpful in filling out big black areas.
Still, I'd recommend buying these in person if you can, at a proper art supply store. They'll generally let you buy them individually, and also test them out beforehand to weed out any duds.
