In 1927 the world population was 2 billion. As we enter the third millennium, the planet’s population has swelled to 6 billion – less than a lifetime to arrive at 6 billion. That’s 6,000,000,000 in case you can’t get the picture with words. To realize this astounding number even more, why not contribute to it?<\/p>\n

Ha I heard the *snickers*. No! I’m not talking about that sort of contribution. What I mean is that you can participate in a project known as YouDraw.<\/a> What is it you say? Well prepare for a culture lesson—-<\/p>\n

Youdraw.com<\/a> is an exceptionally creative, simple and interactive web site that intends to represent the current, huge scale of humanity. It’s an idea to represent the six billion people of the world with personal drawings that will be collected into a series of books to tour the world on display. Louis Paschoud and Ally Cane are the two artists who had the idea.

I’m an artist there myself and I would like to see this idea conceptualize and take off. Even if you can’t draw you can at least make a doodle and everything counts. Just not text. To see my artwork click here<\/a> and remember to vote for my drawings!!!<\/p>\n

If you were to draw one “stick” person every second, 24 hours a day, it would take 200 years to make 6 billion drawings. This is why YouDraw<\/a> needs your help. The more people that make a drawing there, the faster we can reach our goal.<\/p>\n
