Who's the Artist?

Participants draw a quick representation of a unique fact about themselves, and the rest of the group tries to guess both the fact and the artist. It combines creativity with personal disclosure.

When to Use

To humanize remote colleagues and spark conversation through visual interpretation.

How It Works

Solves: Lack of personal connection in remote teams; feeling like 'cogs in a machine'.

Step-by-Step Instructions
Follow these steps to facilitate this method
  1. 1

    Step 1: Give participants a prompt to draw a secret fact or hobby (3 mins).

  2. 2

    Step 2: Collect drawings anonymously (if digital) or have everyone show them at once (2 mins).

  3. 3

    Step 3: The group guesses who drew what and what the story behind it is (15 mins).

Facilitator Tips
  • Emphasize that 'bad' drawing is actually better for this game as it's funnier.
  • Strictly timebox the drawing phase to prevent perfectionism.
Variations
  • Blind Drawing: Draw the fact with your eyes closed for extra laughs.
