#WeWillDraw
With most of the country pretty much on lockdown, artist Will Sliney has come to the rescue!
Sliney is from Cork and has worked on Marvel's Star Wars, Spider-Man, and artwork for Everton Football Club.
Last week he came up with an idea to set a daily art challenge for everyone who is stuck at home.
Lots of kids are stuck at home in Ireland now. I have an idea. I'm going to set an art challenge each day and I'd love to see the drawings that people do. I'll share them all at the end of each day
Good idea? pic.twitter.com/GGVxWeu7sQ— Will Sliney (@WillSliney) March 12, 2020
Friday's was Spiderman.
Sliney encouraged people to give it a go for themselves or print out his drawing and colour it in.
And since them thousands of children are taking part!
Over 1500 drawings of @starwars all drawn TODAY! by kids in Ireland who are being kept indoors from the virus. #wewilldraw
This is incredible. Thank you all for brightening up our day.What do you think @HamillHimself? pic.twitter.com/wsHl1w9D3L

Today's challenge is 'design your own superhero.'
And keep an eye on his Twitter page tomorrow as Sliney will be launching a free live art class!
Today for #wewilldraw I'm busy preparing tomorrows first free live class so my buddies over at @HairyBabyTees are going to take the ball today and run with it. The theme?
