Vacation Art Challenge - No Art Supplies Needed!

In this video, I’ll show you how to create striking abstract art using nothing more than a 4-color ballpoint pen and a single sheet of paper. That’s right—no paint, no brushes, just the humble pen transformed into a powerful tool for artistic expression.

You’ll learn how to use line variation, including circular scribbles, jagged lines, and crosshatching techniques, to build rich textures and layers of color. This tutorial is perfect for artists looking to explore minimalist materials, textural drawing, or just have fun making pen-based abstract art anywhere, anytime.

🎨 Whether you're sketching on the go or looking for new ways to add variety to your creative process, this lesson will inspire you to see everyday tools in a whole new way.
