Inspire Create: Exercise 1 - Thursday 7 June 2012

Inspire Create: Exercise 1 - Thursday 7 June 2012

This is an easy fun little warm up exercise that everyone can do, even the kids, just to get started:

a) Draw a stick figure

b) Add whatever you are wearing, include glasses, scarves, and yes, even if you are wearing your pyjamas that is fine too!

c) Add the weather, ie..if it's windy, your hair will be blowing to one side, if it's sunny, plant
a sun in the sky...if it's raining...add some raindrops. If it's night time, you might prefer to add the stars and the moon.

Now it's not meant to be a brilliant drawing...however you can develop it as much as you like, once you've got all the basic bits. Post photos of your images so we can all see what you are wearing and what the weather's doing where you live.
