For Sofia’s Lens Artists challenge for this week, she is inviting us to look back at doors.
Not a secret at all—I’m totally addicted to doors. 😅 I’ve loved joining Dan’s Thursday Doors Challenge, and this one goes way back to my 2022 entry. I’ve come across so many colourful doors on my travels, but this time I thought I’d re-share a few that I actually sketched myself. A little different, but just as fun! Who else has a thing for doors? 🚪✨
Here are a few doors that was my entry for some of the art challenges in Instagram. Just as in WordPress where we have challenges and themes every week, Instagram also has the same. I just want to share with you some of the DOORS which I have sketched in my own style.
I sketched this door because of its details and it seems like such a welcoming door. This is the #doorofjuly , a challenge from @inkypaperhouse It is a door in Stockholm, Sweden… a place that I wish to visit one day. #drawdoorofmonth

This is my version of A cute seafood restaurant in Clinton USA for @trinketsetc ‘s challenge.

It was my first time joining @eureca1 for the whole hour of sketching. It’s either the tutor was too fast or I was too slow 😂😂😂 I was struggling to catch up. Maybe next time I will get better. #sgshopfrontchallenge

The next two are not challenges but I saw photos of washing lines and wanted to sketch it as a practice. I believe these are from Italy.

A practice of washing lines. This is my “thing” as of this time. But maybe next week will be another theme. @clotheslinespoetry

Another door sketch that was chosen as the badge for that year was one I created.

A collage of the original doors that inspired my sketches.

Lovely drawings Teresa 😀
Thanks Brian, much appreciated!
That’s wonderful work. The Rhursday Doors logo never looked like a one off,
The logo was used for the entire year. Thanks I.J.
Yes, of course. What I meant was that it was clear that there would have been many more behind that.
Oh yes…still going on.
They are all lovely Techie.😍
Maraming Salamat Arlene. Hope all is good with you health wise.
