The Drawing Club was thinking and working in planes (not aircraft). We used gems and crystals as our subjects because it helps us to teach our brains to see planes in everything. It was scary going in, but everything turned out great in the end. They even look shiny! This is the good stuff.

The Mixed Media gang looked at the illustration work of Zhe Titi (Hangzhou, China) to inspire our own layered, textured worlds. Each of us created an image of mystery, secrets or protection. This is the weirdly good stuff.

Passive + Aggressive. A little information, a little warning.

The Mixed Media gang looked at the commercial illustration work of Caribay M. Benevides of Buenos Aires to study her vibrant use of color, form and line. Then we set about making our own images. We sketched, looked for success, made a color plan, then a painting. This is the good stuff.

The Drawing Club was working on the details of strawberries; building color layers to get even richer detail with watercolor pencil. With this subject it is all about the seeds. This is the good stuff.
