    Making Friday: My Apartment Safari

    9 Apr 2020

    “What if our real problem was not so much that we are not allowed to go anywhere – but that we don’t how to make the most of what is already to hand?” -Alain de Botton

    This quote is a great curiosity prompt for Lockdown times, isn’t it? What do we already have at hand?

    Over the years, Paul & I have collected a lot of little animal figures, so I’ve been giving each one a proper look by drawing them all in a sketchbook, & then posted them on the @makingfriday Instagram page with the tag #myapartmentsafari.

    What a fun thing to do! As I sketched each one, I really appreciated their shapes & materials & surface detail, also recalling the tale of how we found that particular little animal.

    If you enjoyed that, here are two things you can do:

    1. Visit the Making Friday page and find the Downloads section to find a bunch of #myapartmentsafari colouring pages.
    2. Try it out for yourself, by joining the #myApartmentSafari challenge. Click here to see how it works.
