At school, a close view of my 3 of my daily essentials: my lesson plan book, a pencil and my camera case (one of the hundreds of things I've crocheted)... : )
This is a detail of my front porch, one of the posts. The porch ceiling color is a bit off and the shadow was supposed to be more blue, but when it went over the yellow ochre it got more chocolaty. I do love my post tho'!
Today was Liam's last day of swim lessons (for this season, anyway). They put the kids in the canoe and rocked it back and forth, then eventually tipped it over! Liam was panicked at first, but he "swam" to the edge (they all had life jackets on).
For this, I wanted to zoom in and only draw a little bit of the picture, and I wanted to focus on the rock and the deer. This photo is really bad though because I had to tilt the camera so the picture wouldn't look like it's bending. Also the date is wrong.
I used an HB pencil and one of my mugs from home as a reference. I drew most of this in a car so that's why some of the flower thingies look a bit weird. Also the shadow of the mug is very light because I did this just now and I did it without the reference pic that I took so that explains some of the mess ups.
I was in a train station a few months back. There was a board for posting local events and the like. There was only one small sign in this huge board. It was the above sign.
This seems like a serial killer trap. And no, I didn't call the number.
I blurred the area code.

Lesson 3 - Abstracting shapes.
To the left - Similar coloured objects that overlap. Teapot, cup and saucer coloured in watercolour pencil.
To the right - drew out purple in watercolour and brush then filled in rest with second colour to match tea set.
I found both exercises tricky because I was just putting everything into one shape rather than drawing things out individually.
Swimming lessons for the under-fives at an ungodly hour on a Saturday morning. These children do not stay still, but there is something about the identical swimming hats and armbands that makes me want to attempt the impossible and capture the scene. (Also, photographs are not allowed, so drawing is the only option).
They form a well synchronized pair, he loves to train and …

Nearly our last Greek lesson before Christmas. Niko's the teacher we always wanted. He started us this May with four helpful books.
- Κλεάνθης Αρβανιτάκης Φρόσω Αρβανιτάκη, Επικοινωνήστε ελληνικά 1(Arvanitakis, K & F Communicate in Greek - Epikoiniste Ellinika 1, Book 1 and the exercise book that goes with it.
- Greek: An Essential Grammar of the Modern Language
- Oxford Learner's Pocket Dictionary
Niko has lesson plans, gives us homework, chats in Greek, records things on my laptop so we can practice pronunciation, helps with writing Greek and is invariably supportive and funny. But our progress seems so slow - or is it? When my mother stayed with us in Corfu in October she had the impression I was speaking quite a lot. Lin says things like :I'm never going to learn". but she was helping me with homework yesterday and translating paragraphs of Greek from a paperback novel. Our lessons are an hour and a half but Niko never finishes by the clock so we often have longer than agreed time. Yesterday as well as going through our homework, which was all about getting the right pronoun for different sentences and remembering the declension of four verbs - μένω - to live, έχω - to have, δουλεύω - to work, and είμαι - to be. Then we did some grammar and punctuation - accents, other diacritics, using capitals and lower case, and the transcription of foreign names. The Greek question mark is a semi-colon. Where English use speech marks "" , Greek uses . Greek divides large numbers with full stops, thus 1.456.777 instead of the English 1,456,777. Where English would use a semi-colon (;), Greek uses a colon or raised point (:).
A sentence to test pronunciation and grammar: "Your donkey's milk is good."
Working on lesson plans for next week. We will be starting self portraits. This year torn paper. No brushes to clean only scraps of paper to sweep up.
That was a day I thought to be wasted for nothing but the last hour of my walking along the park gave me a perfect chance to take a bit photos with so brightful young spawns before the storm began.
I've been thinking about the process of learning art. So I thought I'd go back to the very beginning and as a self imposed assignment paint a picture using only horizontal brush strokes. Somewhere I read a theory that people progress through developmental stages. First you have fun making marks on paper. Then you try various types of marks - horizontal, vertical, circular, diagonal. Then comes differentiation of shape - square, circle, triangle. Next is recognition of edge and volume, then size, and finally space and depth. So, by limiting myself to using just horizontal marks I thought I might trigger an early experience.
Additionally, I placed my iPad in a wire book stand so that it stood up by itself almost vertically on the table as if it were a canvas on an easel and I held my homemade stylus straight up and down between thumb and fingers palm facing me with the tip pointing up. Normally I hold my iPad in my lap and I paint with my finger or hold my stylus like a writing instrument.
It worked. The situation was odd enough that I became aware of the process and realized the many choices and decisions that must make it confusing and overwhelming to someone just starting. What brush size do you use? Where do you start and how do you proceed? What colors do you use and how do you pick them? How much paint thinner do you use? What happens when you work one color into another? How do you blend to a different value or another color? When do you stop? There's really a lot going on.
Much of this is tacit knowledge as opposed to explicit knowledge. It's the stuff you don't know you know; likely the stuff you learned early on and is so engrained that it no longer raises to a level of consciousness. It's stuff that's hard wired and when pointed out to you, you say, "Oh yeah, you do THAT, but it's so obvious I didn't think it was worth mentioning".
This must be what makes learning art so challenging and why it can only be done by doing through observation, imitation, and practice. You can't really learn by reading about it or by following a prescribed step-by-step process.
