6 Years of Cartooning Chaos!

Ever dreamt of reliving your childhood cartoon obsession? Well, dust off those crayons, fire up your drawing tablet, and get ready to unleash your inner artist with JuneToon!

What is JuneToon?

Think of it as your annual permission slip to go wild in the world of cartoons. It's a month-long (that's right, a whole month!) drawing challenge on Instagram, brought to you by the awesome folks at The Toonskwad Artists.

Who are The Toonskwad Artists?

These are your cartoon crusaders, a passionate bunch dedicated to sparking creativity and helping you rediscover the joy of drawing.

Alright, I'm intrigued. How does this JuneToon thing work?

Buckle up, because it's ridiculously fun:

Daily Dose of Doodling: Grab your favorite art supplies (pencils, paints, markers, heck, maybe even sidewalk chalk!) and create a brand new cartoon character EVERY. SINGLE. DAY. throughout June. It's the perfect way to build a rock-solid drawing habit and keep those creative juices flowing!

Nostalgia-Fest: Remember He-Man, or maybe it was all about Sailor Moon? JuneToon is your chance to revisit your favorite cartoon characters from ANY era. Relive the classics, reimagine them in a new light – the possibilities are endless!

Artistic Freedom Frenzy: JuneToon celebrates artistic expression in all its messy, glorious forms. Digital art? Traditional sketches? A mind-blowing mix of both? You do you! The only rule is to have FUN and let your creativity run wild.

Share the Toon Love: Once your masterpiece is complete, it's time to share the awesomeness with the world! Upload your artwork to Instagram using the hashtags #JuneToon and #JuneToon2024. Let's create a vibrant online art community and celebrate the joy of cartoons together!

Is JuneToon for me?

Absolutely! Whether you're a seasoned artist or just starting out, JuneToon is a welcoming space for everyone. It's a chance to connect with other art enthusiasts, showcase your talent, and most importantly, reignite your love for all things animation.

So, what are you waiting for?

Grab your pencils, crank up the cartoon theme songs (optional, but highly encouraged!), and get ready for an artistically epic June with JuneToon!
