Scribble Picnic - Fill in the Blank


It's time for Scribble Picnic's 'Fill in the Blank' theme! Michael decided on a rectangle shape, so I went looking around the house for inspiration and saw this step wooden stepstool. Here it is as an ACEO (2 1/2" x 3 1/2") in permanent marker on canvas, outlined with a PITT finepoint marker.

Great idea for the theme - aren't we fortunate to have Michael keep us on our toes when it comes to finding something for his really great 'picnic' themes. Your art is lovely Christine - something special always in the simplicity your canvas conveys. . . . . . . the rug is beautiful too!

Nice drawing. I like having artistic challenges of this type.

I love your footstool, and the shadows are great. The background is very pretty too...is that a rug, or your creation? Very nice job. I found my rectangle in front of my nose too. HaHa.

Those holes are for the umbrella I presume.

Christine said...

actually for gripping the stool and carrying it.

I think we had a stool like that way back when the kids were little and needed it for hand washing. I love the shadows on the rug. Great choice for the theme Christine!

Great take on the prompt, Christine...those cast shadows really set it off.

I couldn't get along without a step stool in the kitchen. My daughter's is similar to the sturdy, wooden one you've nicely drawn, with the handy cutout for moving it around.

What a fun idea! I like it very much.

nice job with the prompt :)

Michael said...

As I mentioned on your IG, this is a great job with what coud be otherwise a boring shape. I love how you added the interplay of the long shadows with the rug patterns, adding further interest. Great job, Christine! Love it. Thank you so much.
