HEY, People have been asking me if I could teach all of you out there how to make a really awesome christmas tree. Well first you have to put on all the ortaments. Then you have to put all the tinsal on (if you have any) then you put some sparkly string or yarn (if you have any of that). then any details. then last but not least the star but if you dont have one you can glue two peices of paper together on the edges, but not the bottom two sides. Let it dry then stick the bottom of the star on the top. Then you have a beautiful tree.

Yours truly
SKYLA

New Blog

I'm proud to present that I'm going to make a new blog. I'm not sure what it's going to be named I just know that I'm making another. The blog is going to be about toys that we test that are also natural and we see if somebody would really like it or not. If people want to they can send in toys and we play with them and tell everyone what we think. Once again your welcome to come to my new blog (and this one), when its updated I'll send out the website. Bye for now.

Gardening

Today we are going to talk about something different today we are going to talk about gardening. Well its not that good to plant sertain seeds into pots, its better if you just plant it in the ground other than a pot, but there is one thing that grows really well in pots its a bulb. What are bulbs? Well they could be tulips, daffodils, crocus's, etc. True bulbs, like onions, have layers surrounding the middle leaves and flowery stem. Often covered with a papery skin. Daffodils, tulips, lilies are all true bulbs.

Still Lifes

Well hello again! Today I want to talk about still lives, and what they are. Still lives are really just some flowers, or fruit or something well still. Then you set them up in a special place and then you just paint them. When you do still lives it they could be painted in any of the 4 seasons, but if its in the winter I recommend that you get some fake flowers from a supplies store near you. Once your done with that its just like a regular painting, but its set up on table and its still.

drawing

Hello there, here I am again and this time I'm going to talk to you about drawing and how you shade and other details. Well, first of all, all you need is typical piece of paper an any sort of pencil. You first outline the drawing you're going to sketch. Then you get into the detailing a little more and you shade in the appropriate places, and you add a little here and a little there, plus allover the place.

P.S. have any questions ? Please add a comment.

Sunflower Still Life

Hey look! This is a picture that I did. This shows some
real brush work. I did this picture with watercolor and oil pastel. I outlined my light sketch with earthy oil pastels and then painted over with watercolor. If you look at the piece, I didn't color in the background the whole way, I think it looks more sophisticated that way.
I call it Sunflower Still Life.

Doing Sketches

I love doing sketching. It's really what letting your feelings down on paper is all about. You really can sketch all that you want. I enjoy sketching because it takes up time when you're bored. You should try it, its really fun. Sketching is not really like drawing it's like the first stage of a picture... like I enjoy sketching flowers they're fun. Then again, you should try it.
