Week 33 -Just breathe with Anna Dabroska
When I first saw this lesson I knew what I was going to do . I kept it very muted on purpose because I wanted the picture to dominate . I love the picture of my two grandaughters meeting for the first time, they were 4 and 2 weeks old .

Life Book 2014 Week 6 and 32

Week 6 Spray ink love with Tam Laporte
 All I can say is one (or two) big messes. In the video Tam says to watch where the spray nozzle is so you don't spray your girls face. Lol I didn't watch , I had a blue faced girl.Thank God for baby wipes. I think in total I sprayed or smeared her face 3 or 4 times.

Week 32 Turn a negative into a positive with Micki Wilde

Wow I have always loved her girls. I really enjoyed this lesson she had us write all our negative feelings down first then paint over and write a positive about how we where feeling . I need to practice my handwriting and I messed p on the star (just saying )

Life Book 2014 week 26. Bonus: Sketching a Face with Kate Thompson

Yes I am going back and forth with my lessons .All I can say is "Wow".Kate makes it so easy . I did this while I was watching her, only 45 minutes .  I  like how she explained how to make the drawing more 3-D. I will keep practicing with different faces.

Done in  pencil and charcoal

She had us write positive messages around her head to ourselves

Life Book 2014 - Week 3 - Creativity & Play with Carla Sonheim

Until this lesson I really didn't know what or how to practice in drawing . I knew I just didn't always just to draw faces. I also am trying to draw more whimsical (not for everything ). She has 7 different steps to get our creative juices flowing .Well this is a good lesson that I will come back to . It makes me happy.  Here are some of the exercises I did.  

1. close ours eyes and draw(Zebra) .2.Make a flower out of torn magazine page.3 Place tape down and make an animal. 4. cut up a book page and make a story.
