The Botanicals Art Class went
beautifully. I had some really
enthusiastic students who were excited to get indoor and outdoor drawing of
various wildflowers. Some of the students
were so motivated that they tried out drawing some of the more intricate flowers,
like horse mint and passionflowers. As
usual, I learned something from the teaching experience. By having to explain how to 'see' what you
are drawing, I learned how to see all over again! I was amazed at the variety of styles in
drawing, as well. You would think that
if you were all drawing the same thing, it would come out the same. Nope!
One of the students only saw the outlines, and nothing inside that. One of the students saw the flower in a
Victorian style, with heavy shadows and contrast. One of the students was technically perfect
in every detail. The diversity was
delightful and reminded me that each of us is different in how we see the
world...our worlds. Each persons'
universe is unique. What an exciting
experience this was for me! Thank you,
thank you, for the chance to learn once again!
