Well, for some reason, I can not get this photo to right itself. It is saved in the proper orientation on my computer, but as you can see, it's sideways on my blog. hmmm............
We were making line drawings today. Van Gogh inspired. Lots of colors next to each other in pencil, using just lines and this artist used some crosshatching lines too. Very beautifully executed!!
Just wish you didn't have to turn your head sideways....
Here we are with a sunset by this artist. After she finished her drawing she went on to draw the pencils and her mom's car key. Great use of your time and a good reminder to draw the things you see in everyday life that are all around you. This will improve your skills more quickly than you can imagine.
Our young artist here wanted a beautiful pink cloud in the sky and her windy swirls convey movement in the atmosphere very well. Her hands were getting tired and so she will complete this another day. That can happen if you hold your pencils too tight, or press down too hard.
Relax as you draw, take your time, put your drawing down and pick it up later. These are all good things to do if you're getting tired or discouraged.
Love those rocks on the right, you picked the perfect colors!! Good job.
Another sideways pic. But, that's okay!! This artist added rain and some flowers on the hillside. Very well done young man! He even has lots of different yellows in the sun. Makes it more interesting doesn't it?
