Description: So I'm sure you guys are aware that there is a movie that is being talked about called 'Life of Pi'. It is a movie based on a novel that was released back in 2001 by Yann Martel. This lesson will show you "how to draw Pi", step by step. The book is classified as a fantasy novel which makes the story even more enticing to want to read. The main character or protagonist of the story is a boy named Piscine Molitor Patel, or Pi for short. He is an Indian boy from Pondicherry who goes on a journey to seek out the many different aspects of spirituality. The book is broken up in three sections. The first section tells the tale of Pi as an adult, and from there he begins to have flashbacks of his childhood. From there the story goes off on an exciting journey that some kids may actually relate to because childhood was difficult for Pi. When he was young other kids used to make fun of his name Piscine Patel. They used to tease him by calling him 'Pissing Patel'. When he got old enough he later changed his name to Pi. I could go on and on about the story but then I would be giving it away of spoiling it for those of you that haven't read or watched the movie. Instead I will tell you that Pi goes on a fantasy like journey as he is shipwrecked out in the open sea for two hundred twenty seven days with a large Bengal tiger who he later befriends. I know you will love the book because it sounds so intriguing to me. Or you can just wait for the movie which opened today. Have fun drawing Pi folks, and I will have fun making new lessons for you all. Peace people!
