IncrediCat & Uglies

I've got a new toy and poor Bob is playing photomodel again... I've told him he has to work to earn his food;)

And finally had some time to doodle & doodle some more....

Mini Sketchcrawl

Today we went back to our beautifull sketchcrawl location (sketchcrawl 22/10 at the windmill in gouda). This time we didn't have to organize and actually had time to just relax and draw together;)

(I'm blaming the wind for all the crooked horizons and the leaning towers, yeah right;))

(happy and tired home again;))

Silly Saturday Scavenger Hunt

(scavenger hunter)

One of the last worksheets of the Art of Silliness workshop was the Silly Saturday Scavenger Hunt. It took me allmost a week to complete it (but hey: I did also did help organize the sketchcrawl...)

First: draw three one-liners from your garden, drawing of a leaf using your wrong hand, a quick sketch of a sleeping pet and line drawing of a plant using your dominant hand

Next: turn a sidewalk crack into an animal, one-liner of a vacuumcleaner from your imagination and one-liner of a vacuumcleaner while looking at it. (and I had a silly inspiration thing and 'invented' a vacuumcleaner on wind energy;))

Draw 5 negative shapes you see when walking outside. The first three were done on a visit to Rotterdam. I really thought the ship and the bridge would be easy...silly me;)

Draw your own shadow. By the time I was ready for this one...no sunshine;( And I tried to make a good shadow with a lamp but didn't like that... Lucky for me I had a very good photo of my shadow!!

Draw five things that catch your eye. Searching for something to catch my eye, I was walking around in the garden and noticed that some plants in the garden thought it was summer (fruit) and some already thought it was winter...

Draw a blind contour of a car, bicycle and banana

Draw a quick sketch of your house

Quick drawing of your face while looking at the mirror (grrr...why this one carla? ;))

all together... wow busy week!!!
