This is my first line contour drawing. Mark said I should do this every day.


I've been following Alisa Burke's blog for a little while now. I can't remember how I came across it. But, I am always inspired when I read a new post. I was so excited when she offered an online class called Sketchbook Delight. I must say, the class is a delight.
Alisa's personality and passion come through even in her videos. She makes the process of sketching, exploring, and enjoying my art almost...easy. I've done some sketching this week and I don't hate anything I put on the paper. Miracle!
Just checking out the color palate of my watercolors.

I call this the "Alisa shell" because I simply followed her directions in one of the initial videos. It was really nice to be retaught about shading and using color.



I had a lot of fun and I can't wait for more directions, more lessons, and more inspiration!
you have busy fingers lady. loving this new adventure.
ReplyDeleteWonderful sketches. Like you, I am hesitant to draw or paint. Put any fiber in my hand and I can create up a storm, but paper and pencil? Brain/hand freeze. You have encouraged me to check out Alisa's class. Thanks!
