Yesterday for my drawing fundamentals class we headed to the A.M. of N.H. to gesture draw the dinosaurs, ocean life etc. It was an awesome exercise! While walking around and looking at all the jelly fish, crabs and such the spread from Domino's magazine "Turn this outfit into a room" that they have every month came to mind. I was inspired by all the shapes and textures of everything I saw and thought it would be cool if Vogue for instance, to go with Domino's idea and instead do "Turn this Cnidarian i.e. into an outfit." I colored all those pictures the same just so the viewer wouldn't have a fixed look of the ocean life color scheme of turquoise & coral colors and instead concentrate on the outline, indentations etc. if that makes sense...

ps. how've you been? ;)
STELLA!!! :) how've you been lil lady!? How did your show go - actually Ill go to your blog to ask that - hee hee :) And just so you know I did not draw the pictures of the ocean life I have posted. Those were pictures I took there. And the gesture dino was just a quick sketch on photoshop...my drawings that i did do are in my too huge for my tote bag sketch book and i was too lazy to scan it. :/ So far school is great - learning lots!
oh, cool photos... really makes me want to go to the museum again (haven't been for about 5 years...)
