the garden 2025 Challenge!

The Scratch to Sketch Hub challenge of May 2025 is here! 

This May we are revisiting a very popular theme for our S2S challenge, Gardens!

May is (undeniably) a time for gardens.

Whether it's your own spring bulbs slowly giving way to summer blooms, watching or even visiting RHS' Chelsea Garden Show or other flower related events,...now is the time to add gardens to your sketchbook.

Everyone's
 garden is unique much like your sketchbook.

Whether you've just got a balcony, or several acres..flex your green fingers, reach for your pencil, join us to kick start all things garden! 

This challenge will use and build on all the basic drawing principles. Join us now as we dedicate an entire 5 days on Gardens for the May Scratch to Sketch Hub Challenge!


A great way to continue building your daily drawing habit. Use this challenge to draw every day for 30 minutes. As well as working on your drawing technique, take advantage of the chance to slow down and reset. Join Emily for the next 5 days and navigate this thing called drawing day by day!
