There is a blogger's website that I recently discovered called "Different Strokes From Different Folks" posted by Karin Jurick. I've followed Karin's other blog and somehow missed this one. On it she posts weekly and sometimes biweekly challenge pictures then everyone paints or draws up a storm and sends in their painting. It's quite amazing to see how all of us respond to the same challenge.

When I discovered the blog, she had a photo of some work boots posted, so I decided to give it a go. Initially I found it surprisingly difficult because, of course, the drawing skills still need work. The boots themselves are easier to look at than to draw.. I guess because of the foreshortening. But once I got started, it just made me smile as I was painting. I so enjoyed it.

Here are my work boots. Go to Karin's site to see all the joyous interpretations... some like mine... pretty much what was in the photo... others let their imaginations run wild... By the way... Karin always posts her version too! (And the original photo.)

What fun!!
