The Menagerie: 31 Days of Drawing (July Art Challenge)

Hey Hive friends,

I am starting a drawing challenge this July called The Menagerie. It will run for 31 days, with one new drawing prompt each day. All the characters in this challenge are animals, and each one has a bit of story and personality to make it more fun and creative.

Each prompt will give you five simple details to guide your drawing. These are:

🦊 the species
🎭 the pose or action
🧥 the outfit or accessories
🌱 the overall vibe/theme
🎒 and a must-have item

You can follow the prompt exactly, or use it as inspiration to create something in your own style. If you miss a few days, that is completely fine. You can jump back in anytime. There are no rules, no pressure, and no prizes. This challenge is just for fun and to keep us creating.

I tried to make characters that are unique, playful, and full of charm. You are free to redesign them however you like. Whether you draw in your usual style, try something new, or just sketch loosely, all styles are welcome.

If you are already part of Hive or just starting out, I hope you will join the challenge. Hive has been such a supportive place for artists, no matter your skill level. It is always interesting to see how different people interpret the same prompt. I will be posting the prompts daily using the tags #themenagerie and #31daysofdrawing, so feel free to follow along, share your art, or simply encourage others.

Wait for the first prompt which I will post later. Let us fill the feed with charm, creativity, and a bit of playful chaos.
I am looking forward to seeing what you create.

Cheers,
Krisette
