Trust the process. This ScrawlrChallenge is your reminder to stop overthinking and start creating, just like our featured artist, Peter Draws. Abstract art is all about freedom so follow your instincts, play with your favourite marks, and let the piece evolve as you go. No plan needed, just create and see where it takes you.
Inside this box you will find: Six Pantone Markers, a black Staedtler Pigment Liner, A 3B Derwent Graphic Pencil and a pad of ScrawlrBox white card.
Hi! My name is Peter and I like drawing. I am self-taught, and I started drawing when I was doodling in high school instead of taking notes. That was 17 years ago, and I still love it, and approach it with the same mind-set. For the last 15 or so years, I’ve been supporting myself by making drawing videos on YouTube, so go check those out! I think art should be approachable and enjoyable, and I think if anyone wants to, they can make art themselves. Personally, I make art because I enjoy the process. It feels good to draw, it feels good to look at it when I’m done, and yeah, it feels good to share it with people and see or read their reactions too.

Follow your instincts, incorporate your trusted marks and favourite things, respond to each mark you make, and allow the artwork to evolve naturally. Whether you build, layer, or strip things back, trust the process and let your creativity lead the way.
