Doodling and Colouring

After a week's break in the SHAC shack, it is back to colouring an doodling again.   Last week it was colouring the postcards again.    This was my attempt.  I couldn't manage some of the techniques Barbara demonstrated, which was to leave parts of the owls white - my eyesight just couldn't cope as I struggle with precision on very small details - so there are a few more random brown flecks instead!

By the time you read this we will be back to doodling again - I wonder what country we will be visiting next?

Doodling - Africa - a few more stages + completed

Having drawn the pencil sketch, we then set about inking in and starting on the patterns:

The next stage was to make a start on the frame.   I found this a tad difficult. as I couldn't see it very well,  and went wrong on the top frame, and did my own thing on the side frame.

Finally on Friday we learnt how to draw an acacia tree with a man sitting under it.  and elephants.   My pencil elephants weren't too bad, but it went a bit pear-shaped with the baby one when it came to inking it - turned out more like a dog!  lol!

I then spent the afternoon colouring in the image.   Quite pleased with my efforts from week 9.
