Remember to not hold your marking utensil based on writing habits. Explore holding multiple tools at once (ie 5 pencils instead of one). If too large create a cardboard sandwich to protect them. Bring all drawings to studio.

Complete each on separate paper. Repeat until you find the results interesting AND pleasing. Recommend using good paper.

1. Draw 100 parallel lines with your eyes closed. 
2. Attack the page with a mark-making tool 
3. Attack the page with an alternate mark-making tool 
4. Draw 200 lines. 100 with each hand at the same time. 
5. Crumple paper and smooth, then draw repetitive lines for 4-8 minutes. 
6. Fold paper and smooth, then draw repetitive lines for 4 minutes. 
7. Tape your page down, write your name 100 or more times with your eyes closed. 
8. Tape your page down, write a thought over and over until the page is full (10 minutes or more).

Materials

PENCILS (presharpened)...consider some with softer (dark) lead, INK, wide mouth container for ink, crazy non-art objects to dip in ink (bring 15 items minimum), lots of PAPEr (quality that will handle ink), tape to secure paper
