Hello everyone in the wonderful hive blockchain. I hope you're all doing well and enjoying the weather wherever you are. Once again, I'm grateful to the hive learners’ community for their amazing initiatives.
Today is another beautiful Sunday, another Day for us in the hive learners’ community to showcase our talents.
A few months ago, the hive learners’ community introduced the creative Sunday where its members can showcase their talents in different aspects. DIY (do it yourself), cooking, poems, and art. I'm proud of myself because I have touched all aspects of creative Sunday. My favorite aspect of creative Sunday is cooking (yes, I love to eat😂😂).
Today, I’d be doing something different and special. In this article, I worked on the art aspect. The main reason why this drawing is special to me is that I spent so much time on it. It might look simple for some people, but it means a lot to me.
Well, I think everyone is an artist, although some are special and better than others. But with commitment, hard work, dedication and consistency, you'll improve on your artistic skills.
I'm ashamed to say I don't practice. Probably because it is something I like doing. Well, when I was in elementary school I really loved drawing, but things changed when I got to high school. I can't even remember the last time I drew something when I got to the university. Then when the hive learners’ introduced creative Sunday, I started drawing again.
I've noticed I draw things better when I use a pencil; it is very comfortable and better, because I'm not really good at drawing, so I get to erase my mistakes.
This is my drawing right here. I named it “The angry Lizard”.
Materials Used
- A4 paper
- Pencil
- Eraser
You see, the materials I used were very few, it would've been better if I had added colours, but I had none at home, so I left it that way.
Step one
The first step is to arrange the needed materials well, so you won't get distracted. Normally, I like to do this even when doing other things like cooking. I feel I'm a step ahead when I do this.
Step 2
Haha. I had to take a deep breath before I started😂. I didn’t know what to do, all I wanted was just to draw an angry lizard. And to do that there are minor details to add to show that the drawing is angry. The next thing I did was to draw the tail (I made it short at first) and a part of the leg.
Step 3
After doing that, the next thing I did was to draw the stomach andthe second leg. After drawing the head, every other thing was easy to do. At one point I even got engrossed in it.
Step 4
After drawing the stomach and legs, I drew the neck. Drawing this path was much easier than drawing the head.
Step 5
Do you remember when I said every other part was easy when I completed the stomach and legs? Scrap that, the head was the most difficult part. I spent a lot of minutes- erasing and drawing again. I tried to make the face angry so I darken eyeball and added some marks.
Step 6
The last step was very easy; I drew two butterflies and sketched some parts.
Thanks for reading. Please let me know how you feel about this drawing in the comment section.
