Our towns Tardis. We do actually have one. The made up element in this picture is the girl on the bike.
I Decided to move my plein air painting challenge back here so I don’t take over the September studio feed. Here’s number 3. The purpose of these is 1. To challenge myself to grow In some basic observational art skills. Most of the time I draw from reference. And, sometimes I spend so much time on reference that I don’t get to the drawing. I’m practicing setting aside a Small chunk of time (30 to 40 minutes) to draw what is in front of me, and then I let myself fix it up a bit later. 2. I want to work on composition and lighting. 3. I decided to try an add some bit of storytelling or a character to these so that they aren’t just illustrated landscapes. I will probably have to make up most of these elements which is good for me. 4. Practice putting images out into the world that are “finished not perfect.” It’s not easy!
