draw

as part of my course, it’s been really great.

Still working on my copy of this artist’s photography, not too far to go though.

And tomorrow I start a block week of DRAWING & crafty collage type stuff. Yay!

Had a fun class re working things & drawing figures & doing mind tricks exercises. Tomorrow I get to draw from my favourite photographer’s work – John Santerineross.

We drew farm animals for my last drawing class but more interestingly, I’ve just painted a dragon fruit and I found the techniques we’ve been looking at in drawing class to be a great help!

included:

2 point perspective
using ‘blobs’ as a starting point for drawing
outlining & shading techniques.

We’ve done tricks for faces & bodies & I’ve refreshed on perspective.

Good things to know & to practice.

more drawing, items (candles, my cauldron & jewellery) & symbols mostly :)

I drew myself in a belly dance costume with an outdoorsy background in the moonlight. I was pleased with the result :)

of my course. I spent a good several hours drawing today. I think I did okay considering how out of practice I am. We had to do a portrait of ourselves without a mirror which was actually better than I was expecting but not ideal. We are doing a block week of self-portraiture & I will be doing a lot more drawing for that!
