Day 8’s challenge was to add shading to a given image based on the defined light source.

Drawing Challenge #Day 7
Day 7’s challenge had simple instructions – draw any subject you are passionate about. However, the challenge was not that easy to complete, I thought about it a little and decided to draw my pet dog, Cheeku.

Drawing Challenge #Day 6
Day 6’s challenge was to draw one of the four suggested subjects in Cubist style, which was made popular by Pablo Picasso. Frankly, I must say I don’t really ‘get’ Picasso or the Cubism style. In many of the Picasso’s paintings, I can’t even figure what exactly is being depicted. The course I’m doing alsoContinueContinue reading “Drawing Challenge #Day 6”

Thursday Hops #10
Last week, I stepped out a bit. Nothing much, mainly to my in-laws’ places and one trip to the dentist. At my sister-in-law’s place, I chanced to glance upon her refrigerator door. The fridge door was adorned with a number of colorful magnets. I’ve seen them before but this time I paid more attention. EachContinueContinue reading “Thursday Hops #10”

Drawing Challenge #Day 2
Day 2’s challenge was to draw images with a single continuous line, that is, without taking your pencil off the paper. A number of drawings were suggested. I tried them all, but I’m afraid this is the only one that came up even halfway decent. A smiling face drawn without lifting the pencil off theContinueContinue reading “Drawing Challenge #Day 2”
