A suggestion from Jenny about using drawing to be in touch with your surroundings….

“I picked an ivy leaf and placed it in the middle of the paper and drew round it (pen or biro or pencil) Then, removing the leaf, I drew the veins on. I then drew in a flowing waving line, following  the movement in the original veins of the leaf.

Next stage is to ‘echo’the outline of the leaf several times, and the waving lines cross each other.

Next if you can rustle up some coloured pencils or crayons each little box can be coloured in your own design, choosing which ones to colour.

My example is just a start!  Hope you enjoy  the process and post your results!

No two the same!
