My Art Lessons: Just an old piece
http://cyndisartlessons.blogspot.com/2010/06/well-this-post-is-not-about-lesson-i.html
Wednesday, June 9, 2010. Just an old piece. Well this post is not about a lesson I just wanted to share an oil painting I did many years ago. It is a painting I did of my friend's beach house, in 1987. It was done as a gift to her and hangs in her cottage to this day. It was funny, when I sat out in the sand doing the initial sketch (at around 8am! A couple of people came up and watched over my shoulder. I really felt like an artist that summer morning!

My Art Lessons: Lesson 5: Seeing The Forest For The Trees!
http://cyndisartlessons.blogspot.com/2010/06/lesson-5-seeing-forest-for-trees.html
Saturday, June 5, 2010. Lesson 5: Seeing The Forest For The Trees! She liked my rock landscape, that I did for homework! So we practiced trees! This week's homework: A tree and rock landscape! ROFL She said next week we will discuss the physics of color. I feel like a kid getting the BIG box of crayons for Christmas! Although I think it will be more like the Crayola 8. Here is my rock homework, and a practice tree. Just remember these are basic, not Monet! Posted by Cyndi D. June 7, 2010 at 7:14 AM.

My Art Lessons: Lesson 6: Did somebody say trees?
http://cyndisartlessons.blogspot.com/2010/06/lesson-6-did-somebody-say-trees.html
Monday, June 14, 2010. Lesson 6: Did somebody say trees? Here is the homework I had after Lesson 5. "Do trees with foliage, some rocks and hills, and a disappearing path." (She sure likes rocks! Everything looks red. So, now if you add a yellow filter to that what do you get? You are a smart crowd! OK, now the tricky part. What happens if you add a blue filter to the red and yellow filters? Now mind you these are transparent filters. I answered "Brown? Posted by Cyndi D. Labels: Did somebody say trees?

My Art Lessons: Lesson 4: More Perspective
http://cyndisartlessons.blogspot.com/2010/06/lesson-4-more-perspective.html
Tuesday, June 1, 2010. Lesson 4: More Perspective. Sorry for the delay. This past weekend we worked some more on perspective. My homework for this week is to create a landscape which includes distant mountains and a landscape focusing on the rules of perspective. Pat asked that I include rocks either in piles or in a rough stone wall, which displays how they would look running off toward a vanishing point. This is to be done using either. Ink, or black watercolor. And artwork - which show lots of walls.

My Art Lessons: Lesson 3: Working With Perspective
http://cyndisartlessons.blogspot.com/2010/05/lesson-3-working-with-perspective.html
Sunday, May 23, 2010. Lesson 3: Working With Perspective. For Lesson 3, we worked with the concept of perspective, and we drew a primitive drawing of a stone path, a few silly trees and a wee hedge. My notes for the day were the following terms:. Picture Plane - the boundaries of a picture - where the picture absolutely ends. Horizon Line - the line of view at Eye Level. Posted by Cyndi D. Labels: Working With Perspective. May 24, 2010 at 2:51 PM. I dont think your trees are silly at all! Subscribe to: P...

My Art Lessons: Lesson 2 - more light and shadow
http://cyndisartlessons.blogspot.com/2010/05/lesson-2-more-light-and-shadow.html
Monday, May 17, 2010. Lesson 2 - more light and shadow. I had my lesson today, and she liked my homework! She said I 'Got it'. Today we did a little with drawing things at a distance. How things lose contrast and tonal value is muted. Then we did a simple stone block wall in watercolor and discussed how light and shadow play on uneven surfaces. (felt like I was drawing the Wailing Wall! Craggy surfaces and fissures here I come! Posted by Cyndi D. May 17, 2010 at 10:52 PM. Keep it up Cyndi! Thought I woul...
