Dr Simon the artist?
Tuesday, November 13, 2012 at 1:21PM What happens when you set yourself a challenge to learn how to draw and ask 25 of your students to define the parameters?
Er, four drawings and a submission to the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition plus presenting at the school End of Year event and publishing on the school website.
The four drawings are:
- Self portrait
- Aluminimum foil including representation of light and shade
- 3D object
- Abstract picture
I guess after challenging thirty bright teenage girls to be the best they can be I wasn't going to be allowed to get away with an easy option.
Just one small problem. I CAN'T DRAW. Yet!
So watch this space. I have to learn how to draw, get drawing and do a good job, something I, and my students, can be proud of. I'm nervous as hell. Maybe this is what I put them through?
I'm off to read Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain and learn how to hold a pencil properly...
