It's fun to see how busy you all have been over this break. Me, I have been watching the Olympics - did you all see the Matilda's FANTASTIC win last night? AHHHH!Straya!
And in other fantastic news, all classes return next week. So there will be no new Challenge drawing. But don't let that stop you if you haven't done one yet. Still time to put something down.
Like KM has with this drawing of a souvenir from Rome. I must say KM, this has to be one of the most fabulously tacky snow globes I have ever come across, and I thought mine was bad. lol. What a great drawing of a Centurion Snow globe. The Faber Castell pens on 110gsm Canson paper were a perfect choice for this item. The subject is a busy item but the pens help simplify it by creating flat areas of color. It's bold, bright, and the yellow glue running down the side emphasizes the cheapo nature of the item - although I bet it wasn't 'cheap'! Great fun - I love it.

OLE (formerly CursedGirl) joins us this week with the ultimate souvenir from Bali - the ubiquitous Sharks' Tooth necklace. Using an HB graphite pencil OLE has created a pleasing drawing of fluid linework to create organic shapes representing the beads and the sharks tooth. Deceptively simple, it works well and is a very good drawing.

Hope to see some more works from a few of you this weekend!
