Daily Sketchbook 3/9

1) Go get the ipad you were using on Monday
2) open up to the drawing that was on top of your watercolor layer from Monday
3) begin inking (pen & ink, sharpie, uni ball pens from my desk, whatever works for large and small areas) the image
4) photograph it and upload it to Canvas

5) smile

p.s. Don't rush this. Try to make it accurate and well crafted. As is always the case I want you to spend a productive 15 minutes on this but you will likely not "finish". It is obvious the amount of time/effort that you put in, so that is what I am looking for.
Oh, and don't forget step number five.

Daily Sketchbook 3/7

German Expressionism.

We have looked at a little of this art through our artist of the month series in the past (remember Kirchner, for example), but I want you to follow THIS LINK and choose one of the first 20 or so images that comes up and then follow the below steps.

1) look up this prompt on the ipad if you have not already begun to do so (no phones today)
2) enlarge your chosen image as much as possible
3) save it to the photos of the ipad
4) go way back to the watercolor layer you created on 2/11
5) spend today drawing out the image you have chosen, lightly, in pencil
6) photo your image and upload it to Canvas
7) remember which ipad you are using

Be specific with this, and mark what parts are supposed to be black. We will come back to this image again later this week.

Alternatively, and you can thank Abbi for this, you may create a pencil drawing of a hot air balloon carrying a rooster. This will ultimately be something like a fill-in ink piece so keep that in mind as you draw out your image(s).
