I can't draw a realistic person to save my life, but I wanted the story I'm writing for Blaze to look like it had hand-drawn illustrations. The solution for this is the photo-editing features on Photobucket. I am able to change my photographs so that they look like sketches, erase any background I don't want, print them out, and color them with colored pencils. It's like having custom coloring pages.

OH! So that's how you did it! I was simply amazed at yet another talent of yours, lol. I think I have that feature with my camera, but I've never used it. I'll have to try it out!
ReplyDeleteYou did a really nice job with the drawings, though, they look very, very, very nice. No matter how you did them! ;)
What a creative way to make art in a differnt medium! My name is Chris, and I'm new to your blog. I have twin boy/girl twins and we're interest-led learners.
ReplyDeleteWelcome Chris! Our homeschooling is pretty much interest led, as well. I discovered this past year that I am terrible at following someone else's pre-printed curriculum.
