Two techniques to practice that make objects in your drawing look closer or further away: Overlapping Change in baseline
"Everybody's Junk Drawer" 1.I think every household has a"junk drawer" - that drawer that's filled with all the "stuff" no one knows what to do with. Open the drawer, don't move anything, and draw what you see as a modified contour drawing.--Do the drawing very lightly in pencil- no black marker--You can make the drawingin a 7" x 9" rectangle.--Don't be obsessed with realism! Let the drawing be loose! Fill the page! (or the rectangle.) 2.After completing the pencil drawing,now outline in felt tip marker. Then layer colored pencil in interesting ways.What color scheme/approach can you invent?
Remember good composition rules:Overlap, run off the page, very the size, repeat shapes, maybe try a "floating rectangle" to create an interesting,full page. You need to fill the page in an interesting way. The coloring on this must be very neat and carefully done. Color fairly dark so the color schemes show up well!
Sample Sayings ( or use others that you know )apple-pie order, apple of his eye, at the tip of my tongue, beauty is only skin deep, too big for his britches, blow hot and cold, blow your stack, bread the ice, cast pearls before swine, cat got your tongue, change of heart, chase a rainbow, chew him out, cold turkey, that's the way the cookie crumbles, cool it, costs a pretty penny, crocodile tears, don't look a gift horse in the mouth, a fish out of water, with flying colors, follow your nose, go bananas, grasp at straws, like greased lightening, I have half a mind to..., hang loose, heart to heart talk, can't hold a candle to..., if the shoe fits, wear it, get up on the wrong side of the bed, in one ear & out the other, in a pickle, in the doghouse, keep your eyes peeled, knuckle down, laugh out of the other side of your mouth, my lips are sealed, off his rocker, off the wall, on the ball on the wagon, over the hill, pass the buck, pay through the nose, play it by ear, play musical chairs poker face, put your best foot forward, rat race, snow job, square meal, stuffed shirt, talk in circles, two-faced, walk on eggs.
Very important: do not copy another artist! Invent theses images yourself! Use color, fill the page. Can include words (lettering!), voice or thought "bubbles!
