After seeing the moving TOY STORY 3, I went to my stash of toys and stuffed animals and selected my Sock Monkey to visit the studio.
My students were not as amused as I was but it was (and always will be) a good lesson.
Take something soft and cuddly, like a stuffed animal and draw it, photograph it, make a painting of it.
I hope you like the four paintings of the Sock Monkey .... not all were finished but you will get the idea.

I like pears better than eggs!!!
Easter Pear Step 1

Step 1 - I thought this would be enough ... silly me!
Easter Pear Step 2

Step 2 - I wanted to add a bit of EGG Whimsy.
Easter Pear Step 3

Step 3 - It wouldn't be mine if there weren't any cast shadows.
Easter Pear Step 4

Step 4 - And I love a good implied table line ... don't you??
Easter Pear Step 5

Step 5 - Oh, better kick up the value a bit!
Easter Pear Step 6

Step 6 - The background could use a value shift.
Easter Pear Step 7

Step 7 - Add, of course we need a bit of implied texture!
I love Sock Monkey...sounds like a fun painting session to me!
ReplyDeleteLove all three student drawings . . and of course I like yours. I just want to stroke the longer ears on the bottom monkey . . . .he touches my heart. The middle onw looks like he is in shock that someone would see him without clothes and the top one reminds me of a train conductor . . no idea why, but he does.
ReplyDeleteGreat lesson!
