DOODLING FUN FOR EVERY DAY OF THE WEEK
It doesn’t matter whether you’re a CG Artist, VFX Artist or Concpept Artist - If you’re an Artist you love to draw, right?
This is why I’m telling you about a Fantastic site called Twisketch.

So…do you doodle all the time? Do you aimlessly sketch when in meetings? Do you deface napkins in your local cafe? Well now you can focus all your latent talent with Twitsketch!
Follow the simple steps below and join the Twitsketchers by following @southerngfx and getting the daily sketch topic.
OR visit www.twitsketch.com and look at the most recent Twitter post for the latest topic
As you come across time in your day when your scribble hand gets twitchy then draw that theme and upload it with Twitpic or Twitfire and share with all the other daily doodlers
Remember, follow @southerngfx and search for #twitsketch on twitter
Don’t forget to add #twitsketch to your twitter post or people won’t be able to see your image when they search!
CAN I SUGGEST A #twitsketch Topic?

Of course you can, most definitely! Email topic@twitsketch.co.uk
We will take on board your requests and suggestions and maybe use one in coming Twitsketches
#Twitsketch DAILY SPECIALS go live! Adding to your daily #twitsketch fun are the daily specials.
Occasionally we will post a one-off special that will be taken from a number of specialist categories including caricature, evolution, vehicle, superhero, open-ended, historical. These are not numbered twitsketches but it is important that you add the category to your post. Your Twitter post should read `#twitsketch Caricature: Obama` for example. That way we can search by category as needed.

Some examples would be:
Caricature: Quite simply you take the name supplied e.g. Obama and Google- Image-search the name. Use one of the images as a reference to do a caricature sketch of the person.
Evolution: You will be given two creatures e.g Rhino x Stag Beetle and you need to meld the two species together in some interesting way.
Superhero: The challenge here will be to create a be new superhero from the topic supplied e.g. Chicken boy or Sponge Girl. Or, they may be an existing Superhero with a twist e.g. Overweight Spiderman or Skinny Hulk
Seasonal: Haloween, Easter, Xmas, Chinese New Year etc.
Anatomy: Straight forward anatomy. You will be given a subject that includes some part of the anatomy of a human or animal and you work on that part all day or until you get bored.
Get involved in this popular past time - It’s great fun!
