OT: First lesson is up on the blog

formatting link
I did the first exercise in the book Composition and Color for Creative Quilters (and aren't we all creative quilters?) and the results are up on my blog. Also, I put up a self-portrait. I did it with crayons so don't expect much, LOL. You know, you really should try drawing yourself with pencils and crayons. It's impossible to add deep lines and creases ..... you end up looking years younger. It's just amazing. I almost made my hair red, like it used to be. But in the interest of honest I left it white.

Ok, off to do something totally not creative. I think we're having tuna for supper.

WOW - Sunny thanks a ton for that blog and all the trouble you've gone to to make it available for us! I'm starting right away (well, as soon as I finish assembling the tumbling trails quilt tops)

I have a question - I get it that it's a blind drawing - but what are you supposed to be drawing without looking? Is the first pic a self portrait without looking, and the second a pic while looking?

Ack, forgot to say that the blind drawing was a still life of fruit. I'll correct the blog to reference that. For the record, it was a banana, a mango cut open, a roma tomato and a lime.
