Blogging in the Garden

school

10 Nov

My drawing class requires that we do some drawing outside of class time. I haven’t done any yet this semester, so with the warm weather I decided to venture out to a garden to do some drawing.

There are several gardens at my school, but I always end up in the same one, on the same bench. My first year I used to wander from garden to garden until I found an empty bench to study or read on. Now, I always seem to have luck with my garden. Last year I wrote my landscape paper on it. There is a big lawn in between my bench and a hedge, and beyond the hedge is a beautiful building that leads to the center of the university. The lawn is shaded by the large trees overhead so that just the right amount of light shines through. Right now I can look up and see a golden canopy of leaves overhead.

It’s funny how after wandering at first, I’ve really settled into this spot when I want to be in a garden. I think we’re meant to be. Me and the garden, that is.
It’s getting a little chilly now, so I’m going to head home. But first, I thought I would post a link to this article in the NY Times that my drawing professor has had us read. It comes out every Friday, and it has some cool tips about drawing. The lessons are very simple, but they are interesting to read and they help me focus on an objective.
