Week one went by really quickly, didn't it?
The crows are so very cool, keep posting them! If you are like me, and haven't done your crow yet, don't worry. There is plenty of time to catch up.
Onward we go!
Our next challenge (#2 of 4) is to create a glass powder sgraffito drawing of a lightbulb. You can pick your own lightbulb and compose a drawing from it, or you can use the reference photo as a guide.
It can be a real challenge to capture shine and reflection, and to make things look 'round and real' (remember the safety pins?) you can do it! Pay special attention to where a dark shape meets a light shape, and compare their values. Talk to yourself if you get stuck!..."this shape is lighter than that one, but also darker than the one next to it." etc.
If you're feeling like you need a little more challenge, try laying the lightbulb on a patterned background and see how you capture it shining through the glass, or include your hand holding the lightbulb.
Don't forget to link your photo here so we can all see what you've been doing, now you can use Instagram to post your photos. YAY!
Here's a little quote by Thomas Edison that should be an encouragement to you!
