A new Drawing Project

I love it when I find something worth reading in the library. I've read the first chapter so far. And I've done the before you begin exercises in the chapter. I'll scan them as soon as I can figure it out again. I hope to find time to read chapter two this week and do the exercises.

Sketch something you eat on a picnic.

This week's assignment due, Monday, July 5th: Sketch something you eat on a picnic.

I did this sketch of a picnic with an orange, a cluster of grapes and a loaf of bread under a tree for Sketch Tuesday.

Here's Moca's sketch. He entitled it
Hamburger on a Picnic

Here's Jo Bean's sketch. It is entitled
Hot Dog Beach

Sketch Tuesday: Something Red

We didn't get around to sketching a hat last week. Things were just to hectic and stressful. But this week has already been more peaceful.

This week's assignment, due Monday, March 1, 2010: Sketch something red.

Sketch Tuesday: Recycling

We love to draw in our house. None of us are great at it... but we do find it enjoyable. Unfortunately I often find that at the end of the week we've not done any real drawing...

So I found this and just had to join.

This week's assignment is due Monday, February 15th:

Sketch something you can recycle.

A plastic jug with cap,
aluminum foil,
a glass bottle,
a news paper and
a Styrofoam cup
can all be recycled.

Moca recycling
a crinkled piece of paper,
ten foil and a plastic bottle.

Jo Bean's recyclable giant plastic bottle.
