Tasty Beach Scene

Tasty beach scene

This month I made a tasty creative treat I saw on Pinterest.  The water is blue jello...with graham cracker crumbs for sand...gummy candy for the towel, a life saver for the floaty toy and of course an umbrella and teddy graham. It was a hit with the kiddos!

Sketching 101

Every now and then the museums in my area have free sketching workshops to learn a few techniques while drawing in their galleries.  One way to get rid of fear and intimidation of drawing the human body is to use broad and general strokes with a glue stick and string (picture 1). When first learning to draw a human figure use simple shapes like a circles, blocks, and lines (picture 2).- JM
