Sitting sow
By Lauren Tobia


For the past ten years The Campaign for Drawing has dedicated the month of October to promoting the value of drawing for everyone. Events take place around the UK with all kinds of people participating, sending out the message that everyone can draw.
Saturday 10th October was the official Big Draw Day and a few of us did a quick drawing of a pig - the SWill mascot - in recognition of The Big Draw.
