Went to the dentist after work today. Remembered why I hate them so much. Had to have four fillings, and, to ensure my face was suitably numb, I had to have four preceding large needles in my gums. OMGGGG painful!!!! Then had to endure having a face, nose and lips that were completely numb for hours.... I felt like the Elephant Man when having to communicate with my husband and had to stop myself from dribbling... "I am not an animal!" lol Was quite amusing trying to eat dinner. I probably still have a chicken wing lodged inside my cheek that I cant feel. damn dentist! I HATE YOU! lol
Am still having a great time pretending to be an artist each week at art school. Forgot how much fun drawing can be! Each week we are given a drawing challenge, to try and get us using different tools and drawing subjects. Above was the first person I have drawn. I cant say I enjoy that, cause its darn hard! Especially cause you dont want to offend the person when they walk around to see your work. I probably should have drawn her to look like Tamsin... then she would have been flattered :))
Above we had to use black charcoal to draw some white bottles and below we used coloured pencils to do still life fruit.
Last week we had to draw a toy which was placed in front of us. We have been encouraged to experiment and not just draw the colours as we see them.
Below the challenge was to draw a still life, but only one feature was allowed to be full detail, the rest was meant to be sketchy.
Next week I'm up for nude drawing..... unless its cold, in which case I will wear my sheepskin boots ;) lol
