-Lynne: I used marker and colored pencils on this squiggle. I used three shades of gray and a black for her hair. I mixed the complements. Blue and orange with the red and green accents of the skirt and shoes.
She looks like she has set sail. Who knows where the trade winds will take her…

Lynne: I wanted a blue-green and red-orange complementary pair for this squiggle. I used only colored pencil. I put a base of yellow on the complete figure. I added red to the shirt for orange and blue to the pants for green. Then I shaded with green and orange pencils.
I think everyone should do cartwheels, even if just in your imagination.


-Cheri: As I have mentioned before, I really like to make dioramas. They tell a story and it always amazes me of how detailed you can make your creation. So when I decided to pay homage to The Beatles, I felt that a diorama of them at The Cavern in Liverpool would be a fun idea.
I spent about a week drawing out my characters and getting them colored and cut out. I looked at a photo of The Cavern to get a good idea of what it looked like and how I would make the stage and the equipment that would be there.
After I had that all designed it came time to glue all of my items in their place. This is always the best part of the project and is where I really start to tell the story of the scene.


After I had all the pieces glued in I looked at the outside and felt that it should be included in the story. I really didn’t want to make a copy of the streets of Liverpool, so I decided to make a yellow submarine diving through a strawberry field. I never get tired of looking at this diorama, I hope you feel the same way.
