Kick 52 – 52 Week Sketching Challenge
#Kick52
For this weekly sketching challenge, we are challenging you to create a weekly drawing for 52 consecutive weeks.
This is less of a commitment than the Kick 365 challenge but will still help you to build that creative habit and improve your drawing skills.
You can start this challenge on the 1st day of any month, as long as you continue for 52 weeks.
Rules
- The only rule is to HAVE FUN!!!
Challenge Guidelines
- Sketch something every single week for 52 consecutive weeks
- You can start this challenge on the 1st day of any month, as long as you continue for 52 weeks.

Tips to make the challenge more manageable
- Draw something as simple or complex as you have time for, each particular week.
- It may help to have a theme for each month, such as nature, or food. This will simplify the decision making part where you need to decide what to draw.
sketchbook pages ideas
- You could add collage made from torn out pieces from a magazine, newspaper or wrapping paper
- Try adding some interesting borders to your drawings
- You could add text
- Why not overlap some of your drawings
- You could make your drawings on old books, newspapers or music sheets
Optional
At the end of the year, why not make a little sketchbook tour video (up to three minutes long) and send it to us? Or send us a photo of some of your sketches for the year. With your permission, we may even feature your video on our site!
And if you know any other creatives who might also enjoy this sketching challenge, why not encourage them to have a go!

Hi, where can I find the prompts for this challenge? I was looking for it on fb but couldn’t find, neither for the 365 day challenge. Thank you
Hi Vicky,
As this challenge is not a ‘daily’ challenge for one month, we don’t have a specific prompts list for it. That said, perhaps we should create one based on your comments…
However, if you go to any other of our challenges, you can find a list of prompts to use. Here is a link to one of the May challenges. You can find the prompts here and once you have worked through them, you can move on to a June list. I hope that helps!
