Lines and Curves

This summer I was very fortunate to help with 6 workshops. It was like I have gone through 6 workshops all at the same time. I learned many things all at once, more than any summer in my life. One of them is Basic Drawing and Painting. This workshop was for children/teenagers from 9-16 years old. Basics in Drawing are lines and curves.

I am definitely missing my SUMMER 2010 with the kids of St. Francis School. www.tapulanga.org

About this subject: This flower adds exotic and tropical feel. We call them "birds of paradise". I like how simple it is but so elegant. The lines of the leaves are uniform. The little wonders of nature. Such intricate design is exquisite.

Lately, I have been using props for my still life. Every prop or thing that I use presents a different challenge from another. And then every angle of the subject, you see the subject in a different light literally. It presents another story with the same subject.

All these processes we go through everyday as we blip, empowers me as a person. Reminding me how to take simple joys to another level. :)
