On our nature walk today we came across a bunch of grasshoppers hanging on the stems of the dying Lilly plants. Not sure what they would be doing there? but it sure was neat to see them this up close and personal! This one was our drawing specimen.
Here is K's drawing. He did a wonderful job with his grasshopper getting the different colors on the legs and back : )
This one belongs to L : ) She didn't really want to draw him after so I made an outline of a grasshopper for her and then she embellished it with squiggles because he was swimming in water *grin*
And this one is mine. I was experimenting with shading different pencil crayons on top of each other to get different color blends and I think it worked out pretty good. It's sort of hard to tell from the picture. I think next time we'll do the Maple tree before it looses all of its leaves.
