Attachments - art by Catinka Knoth:

Autumn leaves - demo drawings and exercises, adult art class, 10/21/13.

Blind contour drawings - slow and fast 

A) Continuous line drawing fill-in the background with vertical straight-lines.

B) create the background shape with straight vertical lines. 

C) Create the leaf shape with straight vertical lines. 

D) Continuous line drawing of the leaf. Draw the surface of the leaf following its topography with short strokes or long strokes.

Final drawing - free at last - as you wish.  I had originally thought we might be able to combine the topic of leaves and fall landscapes.

Still testing FW posting

from my yahoo mail. Have been trying to post some pics this way. They just wont send from Yahoo. Either because a) yahoo did not like that i sent out 3 posts within a short time period and thus takes me for a spambot. b) it just does not want to fw pics c) servers are stalled ... So i'm testing if a regular email w/out pic will post as before. Again, this is written on my little straight talk fone.

FW: Yes - we can have a gourds class - Thurs, 11 am 10/17/13, Community Room, Rkd Lib.

----Forwarded message---- Sent: Mon, Oct 7, 2013 4:21 PM EDT Subject: Yes - we can have a gourds class - Thurs, 11 am 10/17/13, Community Room, Rkd Lib. Hello All! You were talking about doing gourds. I reserved the Community Room for Thursday, 10/17/13, (week of Columbus Day), our usual time slot, 11am. We can do gourds then. A few of you mentioned bringing some gourds in. Let me know soon if you can come to this extra class session. If there are too few, I will cancel it with the library - but I would like to know soon enough so that they could know they have the room free for other things.
