I lied when I said there'd be no homework for that woodcut relief class. There's one homework assignment, due Monday: bring in three drawings, not figure drawings from previous classes, done in bold stroke (light on detail), in pen-and-ink. We can use or redraw drawings we've done in the past if we want, but he'll get mad and yell if they're figure drawings and if they're not in black ink. Abstract, realistic, whatever we want, he says he doesn't care about the content.

So, yeah, I don't really draw. I draw for classes and I doodle in my notebooks, but I haven't actually spent any time drawing since my last drawing class. Except for my Obese Disney Princesses Collection. I don't think I want to bring 'Sno Lightweight, Chinderella and the gang in and make woodcut stamps out of them.

I found a bottle of ink and some brushes and calligraphy pens (thanks, Dad) and some paper but I'm at a loss at where to go from here. I'm not big when it comes to inspiration and imagination and all that, at least not when it comes to drawing things.

Ideas welcome.
