More Artist Trading Cards
Here are some more of the artist trading cards we made and swapped. Everyone really has done an amazing job! I am so impressed with every card I see. I'm thinking next time we'll do postcards, or maybe more ATCs? Any ideas?
Cupcakes!
Ilse, one of our Artists in Blogland members, wrote to me a request. I thought I would share it with you all.
She writes,
"I have several blogs. One called 'art lessons from Belgium'.
I posted a step by step ';How to draw a cupcake' yesterday, but wrote that these steps are just the basics and that the artists/kids who want to try this plan should always try to make their own.
Of course the artists in blogland know this.
But when I start school again I want the kids in class to try this step by step plan and make their own creative cupcake in their own style. If I could show them several cupcakes, started with the same step by step plan, but with so many different outcomes It would be great...
On my other blog ';touch of beauty' I posted a question to upload drawings of cupcakes in the flickr album or to mail them to me so I can post them. (Ilse@Blue-gate.Be)
I really hope I can get a lot of examples so the kids will be inspired. When I get lots of them I'll make a slideshow for the kids.
Maybe you can help me? Greetings, Ilse"
So, if you would like to DRAW CUPCAKES from the step-by-step directions to help out Ilse, please upload them to her the flickr album!
