Flower Garden

Flowers have an expression of countenance as much as men and animals. Some seem to smile; some have a sad expression; some are pensive and diffident; others again are plain, honest and upright, like the broad-faced sunflower and the hollyhock. (Henry Ward Beecher)

Explore your creativity with this project, and remember to push away the censor and critic and to have fun.

Other than the infinity of stars, perhaps nowhere else is there as much abundance in the Universe as in the creation of flowers. These delightful gifts from Nature are not difficult to draw, there is an endless variety for inspiration, and flowers are all around us in some form or another.

1  In your imagination, create a part of a flower garden, such as against a wall or under a tree. Alternatively you can use a part of a garden as your inspiration.

2  Do some brainstorming (write down all your thoughts and ideas about each flower) and give each kind of flower a defining characteristic.

3  Create a cartoon strip or picture storybook that depicts a conversation between the different kinds of flowers in this part of the garden.
