Not the most flattering of photos (I've got Malc's old coat on to prevent myself being covered from head to toe in sawdust!) but after being brave enough to have a go with a chainsaw I just had to share this pic with pride ;) I successfully chopped the log in half, but I think carving toadstools will require some practice lol
That was yesterday though. Today (well, this evening) I was over at The Cubby Hole, Crewe for CR8@204, our monthly art class. This week we had to select parts of images from our image board and replicate the lines, texture and tone with our graphite pencils.
We put these in a little accordion book, which is now secured in my sketchbook.
We then had to work on a bigger scale in our sketchbooks, and added white emulsion and coloured pencil. I focused on some cobblestones. I really enjoyed the process, and it still has some way to go so it doesn't look much yet!
It's getting my brain thinking around the project title though - mine is Urban Landscape! And it meant I actually did some drawing today :)
