Start a New Hobby Week - Discover Color - If you love color but find paint difficult to handle, colored pencils are an excellent choice. It takes a little longer to achieve large areas of color, but you have a great deal of control, and can create the most beautiful, jewel-like effects with careful layering. Good quality colored pencils have much more pigment in them than the cheap children's ones you probably remember from school, so you can get really intense color - especially if you ... Start a New Hobby - Play, Craft, Collect... - Hobbies can be wonderfully sociable things. It's funny that 'geeks' have a reputation for being antisocial, but the tabletop wargaming club that my kids go to must have the friendliest bunch of people I've ever met! Older players make a lot of effort to encourage the younger ones and the shared enthusiasm they have for their game is contagious. I've also enjoyed a local knitting group, and playing in musical ensembles. A new hobby might be just w... Start a New Hobby - Start a Sketchbook - One of the first things you'll want to do is buy a sketchbook. Before you do so, it's a good idea to do some sketching on loose paper or sketch pads first, so you get an idea of the size and format that suits you best. Some people like to sketch in a very small notebook like a Moleskine, while others prefer a larger sketchbook like one of these Sketchbook Top Picks.
Once you've chosen a sketchbook, it can be a little daunting to make a start - a... Start a New Hobby - Day Three Roundup -
Start a New Hobby Week is in full swing with loads of great tips and ideas for getting started with a new hobby. This could be a great time to get back to hobbies you've once picked up and put aside. Or even to find out about your family's hobbies! My daughter has just started attending ballet classes, so I might need to have a bit of a read of our Dance Guide's advice for parents. Here's some more topics to explore:
Model Trains - Assembli... Enduring Subjects - Have you noticed how many artists seem to be obsessed with particular subjects? So often when you look through an artist's oeuvre, you'll see the same motif recurring time and time again. Still-lives - sometimes even featuring the same vase - or views of a town or garden. A particular model will be their muse, or even a particular 'type' of model with a certain look. As I write this, Cezanne's landscapes come to mind, the dancers of Degas, and El... Start a New Hobby Week: Learn Pencil Shading - So far in Start a New Hobby Week we've looked at some introductory drawing lessons and learned a little about drawing supplies.
Shading is an important part of drawing, allowing us to show light, shade and form. Shading a drawing can be very absorbing and relaxing, too!
There's something meditative about following the contours of a shape, matching the darks and lights as you go.
The Introduction to Pencil Shading article shows you some simple t... Getting Started With Drawing - Supplies - Drawing doesn't involve a lot of 'stuff', and you can make do with very simple paper and pencils. But it's fun to experiment with a range of pencils - varying hardnesses and some alternative styles of pencil - and different papers will also give a different 'look and feel'. So here are some articles designed to help you make an informed choice of art supplies - have a read before you head to the art store.

... Start a New Hobby Week - Learn to Draw - This week the Hobbies and Games Channel here at About.com is hosting a "Start a New Hobbies Week" blog party, focusing on the need-to-know basics for brand-new hobbyists. What better way to spend a lazy summer day than with an absorbing new craft or activity? (Or for Southern-Hemisphere dwellers like me, cozied up by the fire crochet is looking good!)
Drawing is a rewarding hobby in its own right, and can often come in handy for other hobbies t... Draw a Wolf - Draw this gorgeous wolf - or werewolf - in graphite pencil. This wolf drawing tutorial was created for us by Michael Hames, whose experience as an artist and teacher is evident in the clear structure and beautiful textures that he develops in this drawing. Michael is a Canadian artist whose work is widely published and exhibited - and rightly so, with a combination of technical excellence and aesthetic sensitivity. So I'm really excited to be abl...
