Well, as I’ve been talking about colours these past two days, it seemed the obvious choice to get us all drawing something colourful. Make a conscious effort to notice colours today, and take inspiration. Then post your efforts here. Link to big pictures, please - the site’s theme seems to have taken to placing scroll bars on anything but quite small pictures. :(

Here’s the round-up for the past week.

> On Monday, I said that sometimes the obvious positioning is not necessarily the best.

> On Tuesday, I remembered how art teachers always tell you to put the rubber/eraser away.

> On Wednesday, I tired to revitalise the lost art of drawing birthday cards.

> On Thursday, I passed on tips about painting with a limited palette.

> And yesterday, I carried on the same theme with a few more thoughts about how to pick colours.
