Optical Illusion Hand
I came across this picture on pinterest awhile ago. I thought it looked pretty cool. So, I outlined my left arm/forearm.
This idea was from a 5th grade art class. Since I always liked fifth grade art, I gave her a whirl.
I hadn’t worked with markers since my Left vs. Right post and I was missing them!
I would probably give myself a “C” for this drawing. I did not capture the optical illusion like all the other 10 year olds. I kept having to go back and erase my lines. I don’t know why I had so much trouble with this.
Markers for the body….watercolor pencils for the background. I’d like to do more with this…but I’m drawing a blank! Haha

- By day...I work in the Healthcare field, where every .. i.. has to be dotted and every ..t.. has to be crossed. This blog is the place where I can let myself go and have some fun. I am on a journey. A journey I started a long time ago, but it has been a bit sidetracked with Navy Wife relocations and raising kids. I finally see the light at the end of the tunnel and I have got some time for me. No, I will not be one of those moms walking around the house with Empty Nest Syndrome, I have got way too much to do, to learn, to create. Sure, once the kids are gone I will miss them....but hey, there is always the phone, the email, the texting and the Plane tickets! I love my life and my family and It is fun moving into this new stage. I am into Digital Scrapbooking, photography, journaling, Art Journaling and Drawing. I am a do-it-yourselfer and I am trying to teach myself to draw. I am finding that it takes a lot of patience, lots of practice and a good eraser! And if you're really curious there's a 3 part Interview by Eileen: HERE All the best, Eden

I would like to have had this 5th grade teacher!
I think that is really interesting and cool! 5th grade cool! Surely some doodles could fit between thoselines. lol. Great job! I may have to give this a whirl one day when i feel the need to be COOL!! Hugs! deb
Thanks JP and Deb!! Always fun to play with color :D
it doesnt look quite the same because you kept the original outline of your forearm. That should be super light(and rubbed out at the end) , and then it looks like your arm is under a sheet or something. Love the colour !!
Haha...thanks Jo.....After I drew the outline to the arm/hand I realized I shouldn't have drawn a line! Ah well....funny I'm not as perceptive as I thought! Haha
Glad you like the color...me too :D
