Drawing week 4

This week we met in Allan Gardens at 10 when the buildings open.  That was nice for me since I live so close by and could have a relaxed morning on my birthday.  The idea was to approach our "drawing" that morning using the techniques and materials of our artist.  I decided to take my camera and a small notebook.  I began by taking some pretty cactus photos and considered sitting on a bench to draw.  But really, Gabriel Orozco would not sit down!  So I carried on.  At one moment my camera was lowered and in the view finder I saw the pebbles around some small cactus plants.  That was all I needed to see to set off taking different pictures.  Orozco ended up taking over 250 photos.  It was a lot of fun and I got some shots I really like.  Next week our work from this week will be transformed in some way.
