If you are interested in drawing animals, check out some of the videos below. There are tutorials on how to draw an elephant, a giraffe, an octopus, a squid, a jellyfish, fish and unicorn, dragons and many more. If you would like tutorials on any animals please email Mr Donaldson at alistair.donaldson@bristol-schools.uk as he is taking requests.
Often, when we do pictures and art work, it's tempting to try and get it done as quickly as possible. These challenges, although shown in very quick videos, are the opposite. It's a chance for you to really take your time and produce something that you are really proud of. It doesn't need to be done all in one go, you could produce a picture over many days - in 10 minute sections, half an hour sections and so on. Whatever suits you.
I would love to see some of the work produced so please feel free to upload some photos to me at
alistair.donaldson@bristol-schools.uk and I'll share some images on this page. Good luck and enjoy the creative process.
