The next assignment: a human shape that started off as a stick figure
This was quite challenging, to say the least, for me. I'm still learning to draw properly!

Our second week assignment: a lightbulb

I battled with this one! It is a very technical precise object, with a shape that has equal sides, and lots of straight lines ... difficult!

This is what I came up with, not my favourite I have to say!

Kelly's sgraffito challenge for July: a crow

Last day of the challenge:  

I had so many problems in figuring out how to get the collage on the blog.

Finally just grouped all the photo's together and took a screen shot!

This has been an amazing experience, thank you Kelly! 

I would like to stay connected to your blog, if I may ...

Day 30:  finishing drawing of own face

The final day! I cannot believe 30 days have gone by ... it has been the most

amazing time of learning for me. Thank you, Kelly! For teaching us to stretch

the muscles of the brain, to cross that barrier of trying something new, never

done before, thank you again, Kelly. Even to the point of making a self-

portrait. Having said that: I am so done with looking at my own face, though.

So here is the final version of mine

Day 29:  Drawing of own face.

This is torture!! Studying Albert's face was very interesting, I could concentrate,

and do it, like solving a mathematical problem. When it came to my own face, I

was acutely (painfully) aware of all the imperfections, and because of the

emotional involvement it was very difficult to make a drawing. This is as far as I 

could go today

                                               Day 28:  complete Albert
                                               During the last 2 days of the challenge I reached a major milestone
in my mind. I never thought it possible for me to draw a face, let alone a famous one, and make
it recognizable! I never thought I could draw a face. So Albert, we have reached the end of the
road, but it was a huge pleasure to look at your face for 2 nights in a row! I know there is a lot
to learn, and I am looking forward to stretching some more brain muscles
