Gracie’s Life Experiment

I started my art classes today. After experimenting/playing with painting I decided to enrol in an evening art class at a community college in nearby Oatley. Having no idea what to expect I was a little nervous but also exciting about learning some new (or in fact, any) techniques and seeing if I can actually draw something that looks like it’s meant to!! Did some of the theory/basics first and worked out I need to go buy a lot of materials (but thankfully am sure I can find most of them in the $2 shop). Then set about trying to draw some shells. I picked 2 v difficult ones to draw. One was spiralley and spiky and the other was very curved and had to make look 3D. In the end I ended up with something that looked like a pineapple and something blob shaped (ah well, I can only improve from here, I hope). Actually quite enjoyed the evening and was quite relaxing.
