This is something i've done at school. The idea was to photo copy a picture of flowers...then cut it up...stick bits on the paper...and draw the rest in. If that made sense. The picture isn't very clear, neither are the colours, 'cos it's too big to scan so i had to take a photo instead.

Anyways, here it is...

Hope this IMG thing works. xD

This is fabulous - a lot better than mine.

I had a faiy in mine and actually, nearly all of the picture was just those photocopied pictures XD Sir was like, you know.. you're only supposed to use three at the most#, not six. Never mind.

I like your colouring and I like how you've used the photocopying corners, it's actually a super idea.

This is very pretty but perhaps you should have added a few more bits of the picture, just really tiny places scattered across the middle to give an even stronger contrast of the drawing and the picture. It's well drawn and your shading is nice, if a touch simplistic, and generally it's good. Perhaps the blue could have been done a bit better though? The shading is a little uneven. Overall though, nice drawing.

We weren't allowed to do more than about two pieces of picture on it. So that's why there's only two. Also, the shading looks like that because of the flash on the camera, It looks darker and more even in real life. I'd scan it but it's A3.

Thanks for your input.

I've done something like this at school. I wish I'd asked my teacher to keep hold of my folder. Did youi have to imagine the bits in between the photograph or look at the original?

Anyway, this is so pretty. I love the colours and the red flowers bursting all over the middle of the picture.

There wasn't really an original photo as such...he just put loads of random pieces of pictures in a mixed up pile and we picked a couple. :) Then we had to stick it somewhere and draw the rest in ourselves. :)

Thanks for you comment. :D

Also, the flowers are meant to be orange but as i say...my photo taking skills were'nt too good here. Hehe.

Wow! That's fancy!

It's a little hard to see the outlines of your flowers. If you went over them in black pen, it would be easier to see and look more like the photo. Or, you could up the brightness if you have a photo editing program on your computer.

I love the colors. The bright red and purple are my favorites.

This is really nice. I like the all the different colors and things, and how they're all soft-looking and nice.

You did this with colored pencil, right? It looks it, but it's pretty cool, anyway.

Peace, love, chocolate,

Why thankyou :). Yes it is pencil crayons. I'm not too good with colouring, the teacher wouldn't let me paint it. :(

Anyhoo, before i start waffling about my school...

Byes,
Sarah..
