Daily Sketchbook 3/15

Mike Lowry - the illutrator, that is - makes some pretty cool things. I'm a fan of his insta account, and one of the things he showcases there is a series of random facts. Go HERE and recreate one of his random facts in your sketchbook.
Alternatively, you can take one of the facts and create your own illustration to go along with the fact.

p.s. If you want to know more about Mike Lowry you can google him, or just go HERE.

Art 4 Daily Drawing for 3/26

Ah, Scott C.
That is, the guy you drew from last time. You know, your pencil drawing.
Today I want you to go back to that image and add as much watercolor as you can in your 15 minutes to get it to look like the original.
Get your paints out and let's go!

Art 4 Daily Drawing for 3/24

Art is work, but art should also be fun. I'm ok with you stuggling from time to time, but especially in your sketchbook you should feel the freedom to play.
I love this guy's (Scott C.) work because it is playful and so different than how I typically work. I don't know if you have noticed that I have a book of his work in the classroom, but I would prod you to look through it just because it is fun.

At any rate, I know you know I am really really trying to get you to build a habit of daily work in your sketchbook/life, and to see that little bits of time can be piled up to add up to something much more significant over a period of days.
You don't need to spend hours the night before something is due in order to get all of that work done.

Since I only see you in class twice this week we are going to take both days and work on the same page so that I can see how the image develops.

Today's directions: take one of the below images and draw it out with pencil lines only. No shading, no color, only pencil lines/shapes.

It doesn't matter which image and it shouldn't take you all of the allotted 15 minutes, but begin asap.


















Remember, pencil lines only for today. Have fun.

In Print, In Hand

Pretty stoked that the author brought by a physical copy for me yesterday.
Props again to Joleen and Ariel for having their work published here.
