Girls Drawing Club March 2011

Collaboration between Olivia, Llana and Mars.

In collaborations, anything goes. We tend to bounce off each other as we all draw at once on the same page...
The following images show just what appears in just one session of Girls' Drawing Time, revealing what a truly relaxing and lovely experience it is to draw all together in one room, a place free of constraints and instruction, a place where imaginations can fire up and inspire and express freely, where art magic happens!

The above piece is being created by Edie Benjamin. Note also the mark of a true artist: she's drawn on her hand!
Below: Elli's hands after working on a particularly atmospheric artpiece. The smudges of a true artist!

And below again, check out the poetry that can magically appear in Drawing Time! Greta was good enough to read out her poem to the rest of the girls...what a treat! An all-rounder artist for sure, her poem was absolutely amazing, conjuring up images of the sea so strongly that we could almost smell the salty waves! Natalie was so inspired by Greta's poetry that she began her own composition, that was just as beautifully evocative as Greta's! 

Below is Llana's broken heart artpiece. Love it!








Llana - island piece

How gorgeous is this masterpiece?
I absolutely love this one... I want to be there in that hammock, soaking up that luscious scenery. Llana, you have brought back beautiful memories for me in this picture. I am reminded of sharing a hammock with three local girls on the island of Ko Tao, Thailand, on a beautiful sunny warm day, the giant inviting blue ocean and cloudless sky...I love the composition and the colours, and the three happy little heads...what a ripper of a drawing, congratulations!
