Alis' Challenge 2
Drawing free hand is not something I do very often or well, I can't get my eye coordinated with my hand.
I say freehand as I used to do technical drawing when I was at school and found that easier. So you can understand why I was drawn (no pun intended) to the patterns on these pots made by the Anasazi Indians.
The original pots are grey and black so they worked well in the pencil.
I love the shapes of the pots, the patterns on them and the way the tones of black and grey create the textures.
My Dad arrived while I was drawing this. He is a beautiful artist. Your drawing is improving he said. My head is now very big!!!

Oh - well done you! Gorgeous pots and some fatherly praise
Ooh, beautiful designs, fantastic. You've done really well, so pleased your dad thinks so too :)
Nicely done. Simple designs can have such power. Congrats on the parental praise - always a good thing!
I love those pots, great drawing
I've got a brilliant artist or a dad too, some times this is so inspiring other times its really intimidating.
I agree with him- the drawing is lovely
Thanks for the encouragement everyone. I will continue to practice the drawing in the hope it will get easier.
Hugs, Alis
