How to Draw the Acanthus, Part III. 'How to draw the Acanthus' is a perennial topic with a rich history. I covered some points in Part I and Part II, and am presenting these drawings as a further aid to drawing the acanthus scroll and related ornament. Though most suitable to hand-carving, they have a simplistic contour and sharp contrasts of light and dark which lend themselves well to an understanding of painted trompe l'oeil and the study of simple form. They are not as ornate as say, the drawings of LePautre, which are very elaborate and detailed, but that also means that they're less confusing to study. I personally find them to be a little heavy for trompe l'oeil or grottesca, but there are some elemental ornate forms here that are really nicely treated.

And the truth is they are closer to what one might expect to paint in a real-world job situation. All Illustrations this article: "Motifs Ornementaux: Sculptures Sur Bois" [Editions H. Sketch Videos: See creativity in action... I thought you might enjoy this... We recently put up a few videos on the Youtube Channel of live sketches recorded stroke by stroke. If your want to see the creative process in action, there's almost no better way than to watch a drawing come to life from scratch. When I watch these videos, I'm often surprised at the twists and turns the drawings take on the way to completion. Subscribe to the Youtube Channel for regular updates. We are also in the process of preparing lots of new tattoo videos, featuring never before seen footage from the tattoo studio.

If you have any questions about the app or the techniques, just leave a comment on the video. Sincerely, David PS - I also recored the music for the videos.

Humantree.com - - The art of Jeral Tidwell. Madimaginations. I've been trying to post on here for nearly a week - but blogger is refusing to upload pictures for me !! Apparently its something to do with the broadband , its so slow . The good news is that virgin is going to give me some sort of refund ! - Maybe i can catch up on some crafty spending with that ! Since i can't post one of my new cards and fimo - i thought i would show you an old one .. if you have'nt dug deep into my blog you will have missed this one ! This is from a few years ago - Blogger does not want to upload but seems to be happy for me to copy paste thank goodness ! Anyway - Let me introduce Miss April Showers ! Card , box and Fairy set . Well its April and what happens in April ?

She aint happy is she ? Creating. Wardrobe Recycle: Just add Color! Δεν μπορώ να σκεφτώ άλλα παπούτσια που να έχουν γίνει "καμβάς" για περισσότερα DIYs από τα All Star. Σε αυτό το πνεύμα μάλλον βασίστηκε και το Converse Pop Up Store που φιλοξένησε την συλλογή Colors και ένα φανταστικό event γεμάτο χρώμα και δημιουργία. Συναντηθήκαμε που λέτε εκεί με τις αγαπημένες φίλες bloggers και διαλέξαμε από ένα ζευγάρι Converse στο οποίο πάνω δύο καλλιτέχνες μας έφτιαξαν με μαρκαδόρους και μπογιές μοναδικά σχέδια!

Εγώ διάλεξα ένα ζευγάρι μπεζ-καφέ μποτάκια γιατί ειδικά το καλοκαίρι προτιμώ τα γήινα χρώματα. Και να το σχέδιο που μου έφτιαξε ο Παναγιώτης (η κορωνίτσα που βλέπετε είναι η υπογραφή του)! Δεν είναι τέλεια; Όπως καταλάβατε ήταν απλά το καλύτερο μου! A Το συγκεκριμένο Pop Up Store θα λειτουργεί μόνο μέχρι αυτό το Σάββατο 5/5 αλλά έμαθα ότι σύντομα θα γίνουν και άλλες τέτοιες ενέργειες από την Converse. Φιλάκια xx. Airbrush.
