60-day drawing challenge inspires Khloe Amankwah ’28
Sketches made by Khloe Amankwah ’28 as part of the MHS Expressive Arts Department’s annual 60-day drawing challenge, which encourages participants to draw for at least 15 minutes a day for 60 consecutive days.
“I like the architectural design of Victorian houses — they look so satisfying to me,” says Khloe, who drew one house each day, usually in about 15 minutes. “I thought the challenge would be a good way to bring consistency to my drawing and be able to work on new skills.”

Khloe’s also going to participate in this year’s challenge — and is looking to complete it three years running!

Intro to Graphic Design students Arianna ’26, Bella ’27, Beta ’26, Betty ’26, Eva Sophia ’26, Kani ’26, Maia ’27, Kayla ’27, Ruhama ’26, and Selina ’26 explored the relationship between typography, imagery, and composition by designing a set of postcards celebrating places they love. Students strengthened their understanding of typography as a functional and expressive design element, learning how thoughtful design choices can communicate mood, identity, and a sense of place.
