TODAY'S TASK is to create drawings or other designs for the chalkboard wall (previous post promise). To make it easy we'll just TRACE & TRANSFER. Let's print some favorite images or gather all those random sketches plus clippings of interesting quotes so we can create a carbon copy using simple TIPS & TECHNIQUES:
A favorite image is a Fornasetti Plate I found on Pinterest, speaking of, here is one of my boards full of tracing ideas: Sublunay Sillhouettes I prepared a contrasting surface so I could see my transfer. It also created a plate shape. If there is anything that needs to be changed it can be easily erased and traced again, which makes this a great time to practice smudging and softening the edges for future pastel drawing originals. Now we just wait around for the rest of the surface to become invaded with impromptu notes, grocery lists, cute quotes, menu items, and imprints of a witty passerby. OR Maybe the whole chalkboard wall can be covered with a life-size rendering of a horse. Maybe. See you later!
