art thread?

Hi folks. I've just bought a box of coloured pencils, and will be working on my first drawing soon. I'll post the completed work here. Would love people to post their art here for us to see. Doesn't matter what type of art - drawing, painting, photos/photo manipulation, cake decorating, quilting, poetry, origami, whatever. Let's have some fun and show our creativity. ๐Ÿ™‚

Your paintings are really good ๐Ÿ™‚


 


OK, mine is not.  I got the shadows all totally wrong but I enjoyed doing it.  When my sons were little they both had the same teacher but at different times.  The teacher was quite an artist and she gave them art lessons once a week in the art room (where else) and I volunteered to help out.  Just getting out supplies, cleaning brushes and tables and that kind of thing.


 


I really loved it and every time they tried a new thing it made me want to rush out and buy my own supplies.


This was from when they were using water colour pencils.

Re: art thread?

Moonlight, your painting is great for a beginner. Better than what I ever did with my first drawing. Did you use a flash to take the photo? I found that colours look better taken without a flash and with good daylight.


 


Sandy, Scapbooking is an art I have never attempted, but it looks wonderful. Much better than just stcking photos in an album on plain pages. I love it. My stepdaughter has made a beautiful Scrapbooking album of my wedding to her father.


 


Joono, There is nothing much wrong with your painting. Snowdrops are so very hard to paint and do the shading. It looks just right in the frame, and never tell anyone what should have been made different. I like it the way it is.


 


Now, here are some of my past crafts.


 



Sorry the picture is a bit blurry. (old camera):-(


The flowers, stems and leaves are stitchd on crboard with coloured silk threads.


 



This card I made with pressed weed flowers and grasses. The gold pen for the edging did not do the job very well. ๐Ÿ˜‰

This one was made with paper quilling. Only the butterfly is a stickon picture.


I used to have great fun making my own Greeting cards.


 


I will try and finish my painting of the Orchids and then share it here as well.


 


This thread is so much fun.


Thank you, Moonlight.


 


Erica :-x
