I'm Linda Ursin, an unbridled artist, creative, intuitive & designer based in the Norwegian mountains.

I hope to start a habit of sketching every day. I haven't been able to establish a sketching habit in the past so I'm making it a 2018 project.

DAY 1: Cats

DAY 2: Monstermash

The prompt I randomly selected was 'monster' so I decided to do a monster mash. I asked my daughter for a bunch of animals and combined them. It was a lot of fun. The animals she gave me were: cow, basset, reindeer, giraffe, pig, crocodile, and dragon

Prompt: geometric shapes
Tool: technical pencil
Time: 1 minute
How did this feel: It felt rushed and a bit frustrating
