It’s Halloween, which is time for kids (big AND small) to go batty over costumes and candy. It’s also a busy time of year for graphic facilitators, which is making me just a wee bit batty as well! ;^) So, in honor of this year’s Halloween season, let’s stretch our wings and sink our teeth into something juicy.
Here’s how to draw a Good Enough bat of your very own!
Three (and a half!) Tips:
But what about hanging upside-down?
That’s what my boyfriend asked when I showed him the above bat. And he’s got a point. Fewer things are creepier than being in a cave, looking up, and realizing that there are bats all over the ceiling. (Well, clowns are creepier… but that’s another story!)
So, here’s how to draw a Good Enough hanging-upside-down bat!
It’s coming right at us!
That drawing got me thinking about once that bat wakes up and starts flying in the night sky, looking for its next dinner date (because we all know that bats turn into vampires). So here’s how to draw a Good Enough bat in flight!
I don’t know about you, but if I see this flying towards me, with its glowing red eyes, I’d probably run for the nearest garlic and crucifix! ;^)
… and that’s it! What does YOUR bat look like? Draw yours up, Tweet it out to @jeannelking #goodenough, and – as one bat said to the other – “let’s hang out together!”
Want to have fun drawing AND inspire others to pick up the pen at the same time? Got something you wish you could draw, but you’re not sure how to approach it? Tweet your drawing or idea to @jeannelking and tag it with #goodenough: it could be featured in an upcoming “how to draw good enough” blog post!
Looking forward to seeing what you draw forth!
