I think it is my turn to set the challenge
Sketch!
I would love to have more time to do some
proper drawing and sketching. I am sure it would make my quilts look better and
design easier. I just need to make time or set myself a goal or a challenge.
So I want to set you all a challenge…
You must show some evidence of sketching
It could be from a photograph, or you could
go out and sketch from real life, you could also draw an object inside, maybe
from a museum or a treasured item in your home. You could also just start by
doodling!
From the sketch you could carry out some design
work to make an abstract design or you could paint a realistic picture and make
a whole cloth quilt.
You must post a picture of your starting
sketch on the blog
So Uta, you did some quilts from your son’s
drawing so now you need to do one from your own drawings.
Size 40cm x 80cm
Any technique or colour

Oh Gillian -- I have been so carefully avoiding the S word all these many years and now you want to force me to do it?? this is going to be terribly difficult for me. (maybe I can figure out a way around the rule....) (maybe I could just do some doodly quilting on top and call it a sketch....)
ReplyDeleteThe challenge for me will be deciding which sketch to use ( and the discipline of finishing off the last challenge first )
ReplyDeleteI shall look forward to seeing all your sketches!
ReplyDeleteThis is giving me a hard time, too, Kathy. But right now I still have the excuse that I am late with Barbara's and have a reason to postpone this... But I will oblige, Gillian. (Of course, I could always pass off one of Jan's drawings as mine - you would never know!)
