ShapeDrawing Challenge ✏️

Try a shape. Choose what it becomes.

This independent browser exercise is not a digital edition or an interior page from Shape Drawing Challenge. Its starting outlines were created for the website.

Use the downloadable practice sheet below if browser drawing is unavailable.

Add marks with a mouse, pen, or touch. Save before leaving; this page does not store your drawing.

Try another interpretation

Use the outline as a whole subject or one small part. Change one decision on your next version: orientation, purpose, or an added feature. The drawing has no single correct outcome.

Print the website’s three-idea exercise for an alternative to pointer drawing.

Keep the next idea open

Shape Drawing Challenge gives artists 16 repeated beginnings, six illustrated examples per shape, and room for 480 independently chosen drawings.

Bring another idea to the art table.

Kevin Coulston sends new book announcements and free drawing, tracing, and coloring activity pages.
