Lucas Draws Gwendolyn's Portrait
|
Tales from the Village
One day, Lucas sat down with his art supplies. "What to draw?" he mused. "I guess I could always design another swamp fort."
Then, who should happen by but his friend Gwendolyn? The raccoon girl said, "Nice swamp fort! Mind if I stand here and watch you draw?" This gave Lucas a great idea. He asked, "Gwendolyn, will you pose for a portrait?"
"Most certainly!" said Gwendolyn, "In fact, standing still is one of my best talents. I try to just relax and let my thoughts wander."
So Gwendolyn stood still for quite a while while Lucas drew her portrait.
If you're trying to think of something to draw, you too could draw portraits of your friends. You could ask them to stand still and pose for their portrait, or you could draw from memory. You could even make a portrait gallery with lots of friends' pictures!
