Drawing From Nature Week 3

On Wednesday in Drawing From Nature, Richard told us to go outside in the park and draw 3 pictures, one a close up, a landscape and a in between drawing.

After drawing these pictures, we then staring drawing in pastels and charcoal.



  

 These are the pictures I drew using charcoal, we first starting drawing  our plant by not looking at the paper but at the plant instead.

We then got to draw the plant again but this time with more detail.








At the end of the day Emma showed us how to make pictures looking more like drawings on Photoshop by using filter and gray scale.

 

On Thursday we went outside and picked a few leaves we thought would be interesting to make a pattern out of, then with our final piece we then used different coloured inks to add colour to our pattern, unfortunately i had trouble using the inks because the colours would blend together, but i eventually got it right... kinda...

Next time i plan on bringing my own brushes, especially my thin brushes as I had trouble putting ink in the middle without blending the colours together as much.
