AEM DAY 30 - Inspire me Thursday

Inspire Me Thursday is back, and low and behold if this weeks subject isn't line drawings - and more specifically it mentions the one-line drawings Sarah Pezdek-Smith and I did a while back. Fame at last! Thanks should go to Sarah for sparking this off in the first place, it's opened up my drawing in a way 3 years at art school could never do!

Today also coincided with Kamal's friend's art lesson so we all had a go. Trying to get 7 year olds to do this is quite a challenge as they were both cheating but it was a lot of fun. Here is Kamal's drawing of me... It's a good job I'm not insecure or I could have a hang up about my nose looking like a coat hanger - better than a beak I suppose. And my hair's not that curly, it had just been raining. Anyway I digress, this is my drawing of Kamal....
....yes he does look like a girl....hee hee....


and last but definately not least, Patrick's drawing of Kamal. Kamal unfortunately is a bit of a fidget so Patrick had a bit of trouble getting it right but I think it looks fantastic, Picasso would be very proud!

I REALLY like all 3 drawings, but I think the last one the most. It is so effective, not lifting the pencil, makes for really interesting images. Thanks for showing us!
