I recently attended an art event called Doodle Bug. It's a monthly event where you can go to doodle to your heart's content in a lovely space with like-spirited people.
It's also where a sketch battle takes place. Entrants have to submit an artwork on their Facebook wall prior to the event and get their friends to like their post. The posts with the most likes qualify to 'battle'. There are a few knockout rounds which involve doodling against the clock.
The pressure is intense! Have you ever tried to produce an artwork in just a few minutes time? And then to a theme you haven't been able to plan anything for? Judges select the best doodle in each round and the final round allows two doodlers barely 60 seconds to draw a response to the theme.
There are some genuinely creative and well-thought out prizes for winners including the opportunity to design the forthcoming event's poster. See mine below ;)
I'm so happy to have been welcomed into this art sanctuary/community! Thanks Doodle Bug, you are epic! :)
