Our Outdoor Firepit
This week was one of our last couple of nice nights so we took advantage of them and had a couple of fires. This made me realize the details hidden around the side that was cut out by my Dad. When standing close to it and looking down you notice a grate that sits, hovering
My Tin Watering Can
My tin watering stands about a foot tall and a foot and half in length if you are measuring from the end of the pouring sprout to the handle. Bright, shiny and silver in colour with a few dents and scratches here and there. Starting at the left at the pouring spout is a circular
Reflection Post: StARTing with Drawing

The Target
For this week’s blog post I decided to photograph and write about my brothers target that he uses for bow hunting. After just moving home, it was something I had not noticed until I was walking around our yard. It caught my attention right away. The homemade target consists of two square bales stacked one

Understanding Comics: The Invisible Art This week’s reading was based on chapter one of Understanding Comics: The Invisible Art, written by Scott McCloud. The whole reading was shown as a big comic strip which was super neat as I have never actually written one. At the beginning of the story, we had something in common,
