In an effort to get the creative energies flowing better, a friend and I recently began a Drawing Exchange project. Modeled after the Invention Exchange from MST3K, it simply consists of doing a drawing each week and emailing it to each other. Right now it's just the two of us, but I wouldn't be surprised if eventually we have a small cadre of artists and weekend sketchers participating.
The Exchange is still in its infancy; this past week was the first time we tried using an assigned idea (as opposed to the previous draw-whatever-you-want), which was to pose and sketch a Stikfa (since we both have a few standing on our bookshelves and whatnot).
This week's project is to do a copy of the Stikfa sketch, but drawing it as a human figure this time rather than a Stikfa. We'll see how it goes.
I'd close with the classic "What do you think, Sirs?" but since the Drawing Exchange was mostly my idea, that puts me more in the Dr. Forrester role. So instead I shall say:
"Push the button, Frank."
