This weeks list was volunteered by Rose (Farfellina).....Thank you rose for a creative list smile.gif

If you are new to this challenge all we do is give you a list and you find the items in your home or work and draw them .. then post them for us to see...this kind of challenge helps with still life drawing ..looking at a 3 dementional object and drawing it ... its very easy.. and alot of fun ....normally Jeanette ran this thread and she did a outstanding job of it .. she is wise with the words I hope I make her proud lol .

Here is the list .. you may use pencil .. color pencils any medium you wish .. just have fun .



- Large kitchen container (flour bin, cookie jar... etc)
- Indoor plant (or dried flower arrangement)
- Your PC monitor
- Earrings
- Your pencil box (graphite or colour/ open or closed)
- A glass knickknack
- Small candy box (such as Tic Tac or Ricola etc)
- Perfume bottle

Well I tried to sketch my old Flintstones cookie jar . I used to reach in it when I was like 5yrs old , it really is a collectable now and talk about memories for me from when I was a kid....this was fun. Brain

No, I wish it was but I couldn't find anything to match. My canisters are all white with the same locks on the lids and wooden spoons on the sides. Just plain.. I love my cookie jar! tongue.gif

cool sketch Darus looks like almost everyone has the flat screen monitors nowadays .
darus67
Thanks.
I got the perspective on the base all wrong.

Thats one of my monitors at work. Everyone here has dual flat panels.
They're a huge win for companies because they use so much less energy than
a CRT.

Tonight I am suppose to be adding a new list .. now please let me know if this thread should be pulled and we can add in a different thread ...me and venus are trying to come up with different ones to hold peoples attention and interest .....should we keep this thread ? or give it a rest for now ?
darus67
I'd like to see it stick around.
I've just PM'd you a list.

Pammy
