Not much happening this week, I decided to draw a giraffe for the G page of my A-Z book, so I have been researching pics of giraffes online. Had a lovely day out with friends from down South yesterday and started a new dance class. I already do one tap class a week and one jazz/freestyle class, on Monday I started a latin/ballroom class. I used to this style of dance years ago, did all my grades and competed but at the time I hated it. I was forced to dance 4 times a week, and it was seriously uncool lol so i stopped and vowed i would never do it again..well here I am and Monday night's class was brilliant.
anyway last night I picked up this photo that was taken of us and 2 friends a few months ago by their daughter. I have never been any good at drawing real people, but thought I would have a go .
This is as far as I got, it's just a prelim sketch,if I decide to carry on working it there will be lots to do to it. Not entirely sure about it.

Had a closeup look at your sketch ...think it is great. Funny how one enjoys things more when you do it for yourself. I found it with studying ...when I was in my 40's ... much more fun than when I was at school.
ReplyDeleteWell I think your sketch is the start of something; you'll be able to pick it up and put it down too - another gift from a photo! Like Angie, I've rediscovered joys of learning,although I'm not fit enough to dance!
ReplyDeleteYou have to finish the sketch, it looks brilliant already. I'd love to see the finished result *g*
ReplyDeleteohhhhhhh I want to take dance lessons! I never did as a kid and I aim to change that now that i'm an adult :)
