A while back I wrote a post about some artwork I did inspired by a book: Drawing Lab for Mixed-Media Artists: 52 Creative Exercises to Make Drawing Fun, by Carla Sonheim. (Look here for that post.) It’s turned into an ongoing series. I’ve been very inspired by the same subject – the cracks in the sidewalks under my feet.
Search this blog under the term “sidewalk art” to find earlier posts in the series.
My method is to take one photo and rotate it through a circle – that way I can do four drawings from one photo. Here is the source photo for the drawings done on 6/11/20:
and here are the drawings.

These are always superb. I enjoy the little faces in the middle too.
Thank you. I started putting the faces in the center on a whim (never leave empty space unfilled) and now I do the face last, to be the “guide” for the viewer!
Yes. They are like anchor points.
That is a magical cloak. (K)
Yay – more sidewalk art! Theses should be a book along with the sidewalk images that inspired them!
Thank you. I think I have thrown out the photos since I posted each one, but – I have the sketchbook full of them. I have thought about making cards (of the individual sections), maybe. But a book…hmmm. Now that project I could do some planning for…..
