Winter barns in snow scenes - adult art class, 1/13/20

Winter barns in snow scenes - adult art class, 1/13/20

We worked from two reference photos. First we did a set of exercises in effort to try to see the photos in a different manner than we are used to. The first exercise was to color in the dark shapes without using outlines. The second exercise was just the same thing color and shapes, but use two colors. The next exercise was on the second photograph. Draw the sky shapes by just coloring the shapes. Working around a tree, a bare winter tree, you might find imagery in the branchwork such as elephant heads, old-fashioned shoes, and other critters.
We also did a continuous line drawing for one of the exercises.

For the final drawing they did as they wished - as the large drawing working from either photo or both or whatever!
