Hello, Kindness Rocks community... I hope you remember me? You know, the one who used to write and draw on rocks but then stopped doing it a while ago...
If you ask me why, I can't give you a good answer. 🤷♀ I guess I realized I am not good at it.. but wait a minute, who said kindness rocks have to be perfect?
No one. Not even the admin of this community ever said that. (Oh, that is me! 😅)
In fact, her idea was to transform a thought, a worry, a message, a feeling an idea, etc., into something more positive, something that could bring a smile. Transform a stone that could cause pain or trouble if it accidentally (or intentionally) hits you into the opposite.
Does that take a special talent? Hmm... not at all, although it is always cool to see people capable of painting authentic works of art on the little stones. Well, I am definitely not one of those people, haha, but an attempt, an intention, does count, right?
Enough talk! Let's choose a stone and the fun can start!
Here we have some pebbles taken a few weeks ago from the beach, patiently waiting to be used one day for kindness rocks.
Just a few acrylic markers came to help me. I hope they can draw by themselves something, as my idea was to make a little frog. As I write this I am still not sure how it will go!
You know, there are children who draw a hundred times better than I do, but I will try to survive this post. 😂
So, it will be a golden frog?
Half green and half golden, it seems.
First I draw some lines with a pencil, but when covering it with the colour, the pencil lines are not very noticeable anymore. Here Mr Frog has a green body and empty spaces where he will have his eye and arm. I know these lines are not perfect but he was jumping a lot so that is how it is. 😁
He got the arm and blue lines for the nose, lips and around the legs. The eye is a googly eye, of course!! Too bad it is not self-adhesive so I was searching for glue. All those tubes that I found at home were dry. 🤦♀
No worries, I used a tiny part of folded duck tape - which didn't work out well. So, more searching in the drawers and then I found and used a small part of a sticker. It was ok, although the googly eye is quite big and the surface of the stone is not flat, so it was a bit challenging, but I finally succeeded. The eye stayed in its place!
The colour is shiny and it is already evening here, the artificial light doesn't really help with taking a photo. 🤷♀
However, Mr Frog is smiling. I think he is fine with his appearance; he thinks I am just a little girl and couldn't draw a better frog. which actually is true that I can't do it better lol
He already met Prince Hefromund. They have some important stuff to talk about, I should not be there and listen to their secrets so here I come to Hive, to publish this frog drawing adventure into the Kindness Rocks community. I hope the admin will not mute me and the jumping pebble, this little frog will not jump away from my room. 😂
