Well I am very behind in Jane's class so I sat down at a local coffee shop and sketched for three hours today. I choose the carrot cake because I really liked the carrot design on top-the cake though was dry. As I was sketching that one, the sun was coming through the window, however, towards the end when I was doing watercolour, the sun disappeared and had to do some from memory. The one with the toucan, was slightly unnerving for me as there was one woman who sat down and watched me for almost two hours. I do get kind of nervous when someone is watching me. Tomorrow, I will be doing lesson 4 instead of two because I will be sketching at a Green house-with a friend. It is way too cold to sketch outside and a greenhouse is a great alternative and I will be surrounded by plants. I can't wait. Hopefully by Monday evening or Tuesday morning I will post my progress
I realized I never uploaded these sketches either! The cactus was done at a local greenhouse last Saturday, the landscape, I attempted three times at my parents house and the oil and vinegar was done at my parents house too. We were suppose to sketch outside but it has been way too cold and miserable. I just read that Jane will be having an autumn sketch course and I will definitely take that one. I really enjoy sketching from life and it is very difficult trying to see all those colours.
