Today's Painting in the Park: Greenhouse Solo

Hi All,

Last week's Painting in the Park was a great success, thank you for those who came out!
It was a peaceful and inspiring event. Below is a drawing collage created from the session.

For today's class the weather is on the stormy side, and unfortunately
I have an eye infection so I won't be able to attend, but I urge
participants who are interested to continue the session, solo style.
If it rains try sketching in the greenhouse, it's full of beautiful plants.

Here are some tips from last week to guide you on your journey:
  • Focus on one object, flower, weed, or leaf and draw a full page of the same thing
  • Experiment drawing your object from different angles, and sizes
  • Take your time or rush, press hard or soft, depending on your desired outcome
  • When you feel like you have practiced enough put together some of your favourite images and play with different compositions
  • Remember be easy on yourself, and try not to be attached to the eraser, mistakes are welcome!
