Hey,blog readers! 
First off, MERRY CHRISTMAS HAPPY HOLIDAYS!
second, I'm now into more art.
I learned how to...
CROCHET!!!
Anyway, I just taught myself how to make Christmas tree ornaments and cat toys (basically yarn balls on string, but...)
When I started I was finger crocheting which is kinda easy.
I gtg,
BYE!

CRAFTS!!!!!!!

A few weeks ago we tried this super fun craft called puffy paint.

We dabbed it onto cardboard and microwaved it.

When we took them out it was super puffy!

Anyway, we made tons of colors and mixed shades and all.

In the end a lot of us quit and the others stole colors from nearby trays :).

It was really fun.

I also got a paper fashion design book from Klutz- well, okay, it's Klutz from a thrift store.

I'd better go,

ANNA THE ARTIST  :)

SKETCHING

I really like sketching with my pencils.
I've found you can make nearly any shade by blending the colors.
If the dark green is too dark add some light yellow.
Anyway my tip of the day is for photographers.
A camera with auto focus is best for flowers & frogs because with of without macro they are so tiny the slightest gust of wind could ruin your picture entirely.
bye,
Rhiannon

pencils,crayons,pens:what's the biggest difference?

Though pencils,crayons & pens all are good for art a large question remains:which is best?

Pencils are best for lines.

Crayons are best for filling in & pens are best for outlining.

you know over all each is as good as the last.

Here is a picture of them:
