An Afternoon With The Clarks

They let me come over and play with my camera for a little bit. Aine had a great time looking at the pictures on my camera with me.

New Camera

Dave got me new camera for Christmas and let me open my present early. I have been trying to figure it out and I think it will be slow going because of all the cool features on this thing. Here are a few pictures of Sandon I took with my new Nikon

More Art (For Lack of Anything Else)

It has been a while since I posted something new. It's been so crazy at this house! So here is a little of what has been taking up some of my time, just a little art homework.

+/- space of a "plant" I have in my house.

+/- space on scratch paper

Another +/- space on scratch paper. Can you guess what this picture is?

Still life, charcoal on canson. My pumpkins look like they came out of a cartoon, ha ha :D

Basic shapes with shading

Toned Drawing

Act of Mercy

Thank you Mellisa for taking the time to do this for us! You're the best. Here is a link to her blog address where you can see some of the other cute family photos she's taken: http://mellisasmoments.blogspot.com

I call it an act of mercy because Sandon cried just about the whole night unless he was being held by Dave or myself. That makes it a little harder to do pictures.

Cheetoh Girl

Uh,... yeah. She had cheetohs for lunch... obviously.

Towel Face

There was a little towel sprite residing in my bathroom for a while. Weirdest thing, I don't know how she got there.

Art Homework: Part 1

Here ya go Faith ;) Some pictures of pictures I have been drawing for my art class. These are only a few so far. I have a toned drawing of my hand holding keys that is still waiting for a grade from my instructor. It will be posted later.

Celtic Drawing

Contour Drawing; hand drawn with one line

Upside-down Drawing; a copy of a Picasso self-portrait (This picture took me over 9 hours to complete; it is almost an exact likeness of the original.)

Here's the original.

Contour Drawing; done in wire on a foam board, also drawn with one line

(I've concluded that wire is a difficult medium to work with.)
