While Emmy was in residence earlier this week, in addition to populating a watercolor-and-ink barnyard, we gathered vases from a kitchen shelf, snipped flowers and greenery from Dave's gardens, cleared a space on top of a file cabinet, and set up a still life. Emmy then perched on a stool and followed the example of a member of Amanda Evanston's Insider Studio.
The exploration exercise: create a blind contour drawing of an arrangement of vases and garden clippings; add pops of color.
Emmy went home with a spectacular portfolio, I tell ya!

How awesome! :)
Totally. I love having Emmy as a mentor.
What a great exercise! Plan to try it with my grandson! Is Emmy your granddaughter? Yes, a mentor indeed!
It IS a great exercise, one I plan to undertake and then repeat several times. Yes, 12 y.o. granddaughter.
My grandson is 13!
