When I arrived at my local art gallery, there were several tables setup with still life objects.  A few tables were setup with styrofoam objects (cups, cones, etc).  Other tables had gray bottles, pots, and fruits.

Since I was the first one to arrive, I took a seat at a table with some difficult objects to draw.  For the first 30 minutes we drew basic outlines of the still life.  Here’s my first rendering:

We were then told to move to another table of our choice and do another basic outline of still life.  This time I chose the styrofoam objects.  Here’s my next rendering:

Still a work in progress.  I definitely need to practice every evening and work on perspective drawing.  Otherwise my artwork will appear to be wonky.  Looking forward to my next class.

Paper used:  Canson sketch pad 18″ x 24″

Take away from class:  need to work more on getting the perspectives right.

Welcome to my Studio!

I’m an artist who enjoys spending time in my studio creating art and sharing my artistic adventures.

Everyday is a new adventure for me. I try to capture what I see and what I create. It could be photographing a beautiful flower in our garden, a quick sketch or painting using my favorite mediums, or a fun sewing project I’m working on.

Follow me on my artistic journey. I’ll be sharing the products I use along with tips and tricks.
