Learning to draw with Wendy Duggan

On Tuesday July 27, Room 7 and Room 6 went to see Wendy Duggan.  We drew a book, a bucket and a pumpkin.  It is called still life.  We did some planning steps.  We drew a fence which is the outline that helps you to figure out where to put things. 

The hardest part was the shading, we had to shade light and dark.  We used two pencils, an HB and a 6B, the HB is our classroom pencil and it's light, the 6B pencil was Wendy's and they are really dark.  I really enjoyed learning to draw!

Yesterday Room 6 and Room 7 went up to the Tech Block to learn to draw.  We met a lady named Wendy Duggan.  She is an artist from Christchurch.  We drew a book, bucket, and one big pumpkin.  We drew slowly step by step, this is called sketching.  I enjoyed it a lot!
