The consolation for it being the end of summer, is the start of a new term. With a mixture of new students and some who have attended for a while but who will be feeling rather rusty, it is a challenge to decide how to start everyone off, so that all are working on the same subject and feel equally challenged.

A little drawing in my moleskine to get the ball rolling. |
So I returned to the power of Three. Choosing a small, uncomplicated object (an apple), and creating three versions in different media is a lovely way to get back into the swing of things - a bit of focus without the stress of making one 'perfect' image, but a page of study.

Glad to be at the drawing board! |
Here are some lovely student examples, and the term is started!
