Sketch-A-Day started as small idea to get people motivated to doodle, scribble and scratch something every day.

It’s about an hour north of Chicago proper. We spent all day together talking about concepts ranging from the language of sketch and basic sketch [...]

So I know this does not have much to do with id sketching in particular, but I couldn’t help be impressed and inspired by the mini graff site.
