Do you mean that you turned the box around and drew on the inside of the cardboard? You are resourceful, that’s for sure. I really like the way you use white, both taking advantage of the white background and adding white charcoal. Then adding the delicate very dark line of charcoal for emphasis. Wonderfully rendered. You are learning so much, Judy.
Shari,
Yup, drew on the inside of the cereal box. I do think I”m learning. The teacher is excellent, encouraging and keeps pushing us to practice and learn more. She also told us that drawing on cardboard was a good exercise – not only is it free but the cardboard can be used as a mid-tone. Thanks for YOUR encouragement!
Wish I’d thought of cereal boxes when I was teaching – the kids would have loved it and the admin would have been appreciative that I needed one less supply to purchase.
Shari,
I try NOT to think about all the “stuff” I can use because I could easily become a hoarder. I am constantly forcing myself to throw “potentially valuable items” away that one day would be something I know I can use in some way.
CURIOUS to the MAX
