Art

After sharing my attempt at artwork it was recommended that I go through the book "Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain". I ordered it from the library and it sat on my shelf for a week while I had company. Knowing I only had a week left before it had to go back I sceptically pulled it out of the library and looked through it. It was interesting so I thought I would give it a go. So the last couple days my spare moments have all been occupied with my "schoolwork" and (to quote 1 of my fav movies) I am having what can almost be described as wild enjoyment! Tonight was my first lesson in "upside down drawing". I recreated Picasso's "Portrait of Igor Stravinsky"!!! Doesn't that sound impressive? I was very surprised at how well it turned out and am starting to get just a bit hopeful that there may yet be an artistic bone somewhere in my body!!! ;o)

There is so much I have wanted to blog about lately but it is late so it will have to wait....... Goodnight! :o)

  1. Oh I'm so glad!!! Did you read the Forward? That was actually some of the most helpful stuff for me.
