This past September I participated in the Strada Easel Challenge. The prize was a new easel, which really wasn’t my goal as I already have one of their easels and love it. I really was after the forced discipline of creating a new picture each day and posting it on my Facebook page. That was not easy…. and sometimes it was difficult to post a picture I wasn’t really sure about yet. Another goal was to really learn and work with the iPad drawing app, Procreate.  Many of my posts were digital drawings which you can see at the bottom of the collection posted here. The feedback and support I received from my Facebook friends was a huge gift I never anticipated. Working fast and working with a deadline was new and I learned much from the challenge.
