Project Planning During A Pandemic
“The devil is in the detail” – Ludwig Mies van der Rohe or Anonymous When I was asked to come up with a “light and fluffy” art project for a segment of my students recently, my mouth dropped because it hit me hard that I don’t know how to do that. I was rendered speechless. […]
Every Day Drawing Challenge 2020 Edition
“Drawing takes time. A line has time in it.” – David Hockney A long, long time ago shortly after iPads were first released by Apple, under the vision of Superintendent Joseph Maruszczak, my school district made a commitment to include iPads in instruction. We were early adopters in the public school sector. We started in […]

May #K12ArtChallenge: The BEST of the Every Day Drawing Challenge
I am honored to have been asked by the good folks at #K12ArtChallenge to facilitate the creativity challenge for May!

Two of the experiences stand out – the #TERPart challenge last […]
365 iPad Drawings/My Year Creating Digitally: All in One Gallery
Because you wanted to see all 365 iPad drawings together in one gallery…and so did I. Here they are exactly as published. I was taking this project literally day-by-day, therefore the information I shared with the drawings changed throughout the year. I admit I got a little carried away with alpacas near the end. You’ll […]

My Year of Creating Digitally
“We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit.” – Aristotle This is the quote that motivated me to try to develop my iPad drawing skills through Every Day Drawing Challenge. I wanted to learn to use the iPad as a drawing tool, just as famous artist David Hockney […]
Eleven Months & 334 Drawings Later
Here we are entering the 12th month of the Every Day Drawing Challenge. 334 drawings on the iPad since January 1. I have learned so much about mobile/digital art making, including which apps and stylus works best for me and the best subject matter to work with. I have discovered that I like direct painting […]
300+ Every Day Challenge Drawings
Wow! I can’t believe it. A drawing a day on my iPad for over 300 days…300! It doesn’t seem like that many, but the numbers don’t lie. I’m averaging an hour (more or less) on each drawing, so that’s 300 hours this year spent learning how to draw on an iPad. And I’ve learned so […]
Exciting News About iPads in the Art Room!
My exciting news is that I have found a safe, secure way for my students to share their Every Day Drawing Challenge drawings. Our online gallery, Artsonia, has a new feature for teachers to make exhibits open for students to upload their own work. As you may know, I have been looking for a sharing […]
Wake Me Up When September Ends
Summer has come and past…thanks, Green Day, for reminding me. Who needs a reminder, really, when September is a blur of back-to-school preparations, routines, and new beginnings? Autumn is officially here now as of September 22, and we have settled in and begun to find the groove of the 2013/14 school year. My iPad drawing […]
August Every Day Drawing Challenge…at the 2/3 Mark!
August was a month for traveling and making drawings in hotel rooms for the Every Day Drawing Challenge. The first drawing of the month was done during a “Return to your Roots” road trip with my mother as we visited her childhood home and college. It was incredibly nostalgic for her and very sentimental for […]
From Oscar the Grouch to Matisse – Another Month of the Every Day Drawing Challenge
Summer, summer, summer…has been great for me and the Every Day Drawing Challenge. Without the hectic schedule of the school year, I have had more time to work with drawing apps and investigate different techniques. ArtRage continues to be my favorite app and I have fallen in love with the oil paint tool this month. […]
