Last week Robbi asked you to draw flying scenes. Now I am asking you to draw a floating scene.
Here is Michaelson. He likes to float. In this scene he is floating on the ocean between Panama and Ecuador. He used to take longer trips, such as his 1999 float from Brazil to Nigeria. But now, as an old blub-grub, (Michaelson is a blub-grub), he likes to float shorter distances. Long distances are for younger, more sprightly blub-grubs. Michaelson’s favorite part of floating has always been the migrating butterflies. They pass over him for hours.
Here’s the drawing prompt for this week: Have you ever floated? Maybe you’ve floated at the beach or in the bathtub. Draw yourself, or a cat, or a blub-grub, floating somewhere. Would you float on your back like Michaelson, or in a boat like a sailor, or on an inflatable giraffe? If you need some ideas, watch a rubber ducky float in the sink.
When you’re done with your drawing, scan it or take a picture of it and send it to Matthew so he can post it next Tuesday for everyone to see.
