today's post is a masterpiece

no, really.

it's a sample sketch i did for a children's coloring book where they take famous paintings and... uh, turn them into coloring books.

  1. i think the line drawing has only one thing that is different,the eyes of monalisa .i think that was one reason and background was plain

One of their assignments is to take a masterpiece and recreate it in line. I have been looking for an example and found yours. would you be willing to let me include your "mona" on my WebQuest? I would really appreciate it! thanks , k (a desperate graduate student!)

  5. grad/kat,

    i'd be happy to let you use my sketch for your webquest! i also really appreciate your asking my permission when you could've just swiped the image like people usually do.

    i don't know what exactly a webquest is, but if it's online could you possible give me the URL?

  6. Woo Hoo!! Thank you so much. I am new to this whole thing. I wondered about "just swiping images", but thought my professor would catch me in a cheat! My WebQuest is due Monday and I will send the URL when I publish it. Again - Thank you !!!!!

  8. hello mcoy, I finished my WebQuest. This is geared towards my 5th grade art classes (I will have 6 next year). You will find your "mona" on the Process page. It really is a perfect illustration for their assignment. So, are you a graphic artist? I have bought a few coloring books w/masterpieces as the theme. Are you the artist for these maybe? Do you do all freelance? Anyway, I really appreciate you letting me use your drawing! Here is the URL..I hope you enjoy...I have been recommending the link on the Process page that says: Lines, Letters, and Sound...have you heard of Bembo's Zoo? If not, you will love it!
    Here is the link to my WebQuest:
