      @Leontine It looks like you and the iPad Pro are getting along : ) Really a nicely rendered image and an enthusiast challenge!

        @Lee-White Thanks Lee, Thanks for your positive, kind words and Inspiration. My first motivation is the lack of inspiration I am facing right now. Maybe Its just frustration, I don't know. I think about that a lot. Why am I feeling so crappy with my art? I believe therefore that I have push myself forwards. With this I hope to give myself a new positive vibe...
        Composition is my main issue, and therefore I have to force myself to give this some practice.

          @Leontine Composition is my weakness too! I'd like to join in on your 30 day challenge, if you don't mind the company! I use pastel pencils & graphite, so I definitely won't be able to finish a complete drawing, but I can do a sketch a day... Are there themes or is it just draw what you feel?

            Btw, I've tried this by myself before & always stop after about 5 days, so I'm hoping that having someone else to do it with will encourage me to keep going!

                          I LOVE that elephant! You're doing so awesome. Okay, I'm starting on my drawing-a-day tomorrow (it's 2:40am here - too late to start now!). I'll try to keep up with you - you're inspiring me so much!

                                    This has a lovely mood to it. I think it's due to the color palette you chose and the light peeking through the trees. Very nice!

                                        Love it, Leontine. Telling people you're doing a drawing a day makes you do it, right ? 🙂 I love the elephant and the bird right above it. I painted a quick little chick the other day to use up leftover paint before it dried up! 🙂

                                          @Leontine I love your trees- I am about to embark on a forest in my three girls dancing drawing- I haven't touched it in days-paralyzed by the thought of a forest-great job

                                            I'm doing this too 😃 Starting this new year my resolution was to draw every day for a hundred days! I currently at 53, I think. I initially thought I'd finish one drawing/doodle/sketch each day, but this was too ambitious for me. I've settled for DRAWING every day, so most drawings have construction one day, line-art the next, and colouring/light/shadows and stuff over several days. This keeps me from freaking out trying to hurry a piece finished. I am not very experienced or skilled, so I need time to complete my stuff. Love your elephant and forest, those were the pieces that stood out the most to me 🙂
