Linda’s Fabric Drawing (from one of my art classes)

December 14, 2017 By Mary Booth Cabot

I teach art classes Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday at my studio. Linda is one of my students and this is her great drawing of a piece of striped fabric.  In teaching someone to draw I begin with elipses first and graduate into all of the other shapes and light patterns that artists have to deal with on various surfaces. There are 10 drawing projects that we learn and each one builds of the previous drawing project so if you were a student you would be easily lead thru the learning process to achieve a masterful drawing knowledge. Linda has done a wonderful intricate drawing….and even though you may not wish to frame it to look at every day she mastered the project and moved on to the next one. She has been very diligent with each project, has completed them all and is now doing some good watercolor painting. In my opinion she is going to be a really good watercolorist. Her drawing projects have taught her how to see much more than the average person sees and have opened her up to how an artist sees her world. Learning to draw takes interest and sticktoativity….and when you have learned how to draw you have the tool available for life to use as you please..
