Zainab's Art Adventures

My cousin requested me to do a drawing of a car for her to color in. I drew this car by copying from one of those little dinkies my brother has.

This is a stool that I made long ago, when I was almost 10 years old, at a Wood Work course that we attended at  L2L Academy  where we learnt to make furniture (stools, chairs and tables,etc.) without nails and glue.

I made a polish of my own by mixing water, German glue and silver and copper colored dust together and painted it over. It looks great, and is useful too. I'm glad I decided to do it!

When it is about 3 and a half inches long... Like this. 5. ...Pop one all the rubber bands in both your fingers in one finger. Attach a clasp or thread both ends together to form a ring or a bracelet. Your ring, ready! 6. Your loom band i...

About a couple of weeks ago, I went to Rashidabad, a city in Sindh. On the way, we visited a farm in Tando Allah Yar (pronounced tando-lah-yar) where we saw lots of mango and banana trees.  Here are some photos I took over there. This is the drawing I drew in Rashidabad. Sorry, they're not much. Enjoy!

Hi Viewers!!! Sorry for not posting! I was out of city and returned a few days ago- and before that, well, I'm working on an Animation project on  Scratch  and I didn't have time for blogging. Anyways, here are things made out of Play dough. I made them Yesterday.  Here they are!!! A pair of slippers on the mat A dress and a hanger  Cute Cutlery That's all. Sorry-the photos aren't very clear- because I didn't have a Camera available and snapped them from my Mom's mobile phone.                                                                                 Enjoy!

Hello, readers! Welcome back! Nowadays I've been busy with lots of stuff-mostly because of the upcoming workshop my sister and I are going to conduct- Every Child Can Blog! Here is the flyer. my sister made it, but I helped with lots of things. Here is what I contributed for this flyer: I suggested the font type, Jokerman, for the subheading I drew the picture on the left (you will find the picture separately in another post!) I suggested the color blue in the theme colors-before that it was maroon, which didn't look that good And a few other minor changes!
