Harmony Art Mom's Sketch Tuesday
Sketch Tuesday is a weekly event on my blog.
-
I give a simple, open-ended sketching assignment and anyone who is interested is welcome to submit a drawing.
-
All assignments are sent to: sketchtuesday@yahoo.com
-
I make the sketches into a weekly slideshow on Flickr.
- This Squidoo lens is the place for all of our lovely slideshows to live on the internet. Each week I will add the current week's slideshow for the assignment sketches.
-
I will also keep a running list of links to previous slideshows.
-
I will feature a sketch and announce the assignments here as well.
If you have any questions, see my blog or you can email me anytime.

My Favorite Learn to Draw Books
Mark Kistler's Draw Squad
My favorite book for children to learn to draw realistically. They can work through this book at their own pace and it doesn't hurt to work through it several times.
Amazon Price: $15.60 (as of 12/08/2009) 
Drawing with Children
The staple for our family's drawing and art skills plans. This goes beyond sketching and uses other medium such as watercolor, markers, and oil pastels.
Amazon Price: $12.21 (as of 12/08/2009)
Draw Real Animals! (Discover Drawing Series)
My sons loved this book in their middle school years because it gave them concrete steps towards learning to draw animals realistically.
Amazon Price: $10.19 (as of 12/08/2009)
First Steps Drawing in Pen & Ink (First Step Series)
We are using this as part of our high school art skills plans. Love this book.
