Al Fresco Art Club Dec 29, 2019 - Experiment!

Today’s Al Fresco Art Club Challenge was to experiment with an unfamiliar medium. I chose colored pencils.

While I was drawing and coloring, I felt like I had traveled back in time to the second grade, when simply going to school was an adventure in getting along with people. I decided to show Buddy Butterfly getting the idea that he should keep flying south to Mexico, where Monarch butterflies from all over North America congregate every Fall in the jungle mountains. In this picture he’s describing his crazy thought that he should fly down to Mexico to find his real family. Sounds like a good idea to me!
