April Theme - Nature's Patterns
For the second session this month, we are going to explore scales.
I spent a little time looking at different animals with beautiful scaled patterns, and in the end I chose something a bit playful and unexpected: an armadillo.
We will be drawing it using a line and wash technique, working with ink and watercolours. As always, please feel free to use any materials you enjoy working with and make it your own.
Our focus will be on observing and suggesting texture, noticing how the repeating shapes create that lovely sense of pattern. And most importantly, we are simply going to enjoy the process and have a bit of fun with it.
