   I'm back :D
Hello everyone! Long time no speak^^ I missed you guys! Thanks for all the lovely comments! ^.~ I came back yesterday about 6 pm ^^ The trip was so great! For those who asked - we went to Dublin^^ I went to two or three museums, to the beach, to Spiderman 3 (good movie but sometimes a little bit too predictable^^), had some free time, game night and several other things which I can't remember at the moment^^; We had to walk a lot, it didn't bother me as much as last year's school trip :)
Today I'll be going to take it easy, check what you guys have been up to ;) and maybe I'll make some homework..

Drawing tips:
- Practice a lot with drawing. For example take a real life object and try to draw it, so it looks as if it were real. You'll discover this is really hard but the more you practice the better it'll get (and sometimes ask help from others if you can't figure it out how to do it exactly ;)) To look at things in reality, to deceiver how it really looks like and 'works' it helps to understand it better, as well you drawing will improve^^
- Colors. Deciding on colors can really make a huge difference in tone for the picture. Colors such as red, orange and yellow (or any mixture of these) are warm colors, they attract your attention. Remember, YOU are the one who directs how the viewer looks at your drawing. For example if you have a drawing without any recognizable objects (abstract drawing) in which there are the colors blue, green, black, and a few spots of yellow and orange. The yellow and orange spots will attract you attention, not only that but it will warm up your drawing, giving it a 'positive' feeling to it.
When don't use warm colors the drawing could be: sad, mysterious, dark though calm, haunting, etc.
- Using different mediums will make you have a broader 'knowledge' of drawing. Try to extend your 'type' of drawings sometimes. Working with other mediums makes you understand different things than you are used to^^
- Others can point out different views of the drawings (where you haven't thought of) ^__^

Hope to talk to you soon! See you around! ^.~
