This week’s sponsor giveaway comes from Carla Sonheim, one of our past Spring PikaPackage Project artists! What you didn’t know was at the time, she was waiting for her first book to come out: Drawing Lab for Mixed-Media Artists: 52 Creative Exercises to Make Drawing Fun. The book is already out and is filled with a year’s worth of assignments, projects, ideas, and techniques that will introduce more creativity and nonsense into your art and life!
Carla is offering one copy to ONE lucky Pikaland reader — just leave down your comment and we’ll pick out a winner after Tuesday, 21st September!
UPDATE: Commenting has now closed, thanks so much for participating. The winner of this giveaway is Jen H, as generated by random.org.

I guess everyone else wants this book much more than I do.
This would be fabulous to use with the children in my school art club.
That looks like such a good resource! Im heading to art college soon and these kinds of publications are great to encourage a different direction on new techniques to try when you are a bit stuck ~ love it!
I just started at out University’s historical & strictly academical drawing department – this book would balance me out. What a lovely gesture to offer one for LUCK.
