Tracy Kendall
Encountering creative people and their works of genius is so thrilling. Today is Tracy Kendall who makes wall coverings. However these aren't your typical wall coverings and for me they get my creative juices flowing. I can see any of these being perfect to adorn a wall for a party or wedding.

Learning by Heart - Assignment:Trees and Shadows
Well, I was supposed to do this in conjunction with last weeks assignment. However I wasn't reading ahead, so I will just do it this week.
The assignment:
Look at a tree and it's shape. Look at the part the leaves play in making the shape you see and look at the part the trunk and branches play in making the structure you see. Look for patterns made where the foliage is dense or light. Look for dark and light and other color changes that come about on the leaves.
Look at a tree for one hour in the week. Write every specific thing you see about that tree. Make a list of other things that you think are related in structure to a tree.
If anyone is following these with me, send me your drawing and I will post it. See you next week.

Learning by Heart (Art on Friday) - Assignment: Shadows
To continue from last Friday, I half way completed my assignment doing three days out of seven. I just kept forgetting but when I did sit down it was fun and let my creativity wander.
To recap the assignment was to look at shadows and write down what you saw for a week. Here is what I came up with.
