      Never give up, always push yourself two steps further than you believe you can go.

          hi, I'm bringing this post back up. I have started the course yesterday. I thought we could all post our assignments here, if you don't mind @Steve Young ? I don't know if there's already a post for it, I couldn't find one...
          here is my tree silhouettes assignment

            I never thought of drawing silhouettes to work the shapes. I love that idea! I think it's going to be very helpful

                                  @Steve-Young This is really great. I think you should push it to a finished painting. Add color, details and all that good stuff 🙂 or some story-telling elements.

                                    You guys have nice things going on here. I watched this class and it was really enlightening, but I have difficulties in thinking about shapes and silhouettes. Do you guys have any tips on being loose with coming up with shapes for things?

                                      @joyce_carmo Yeah... just do it. If you do 5, carry on and do 10, then do 50. If you force yourself past the trap your brain is setting you to hold you back, you'll break past it and start being creative. Also, work quickly and don't let your inhibitions hold you back.

                                        @Steve-Young These look fantastic Steve! Really well done!! Man I'm feeling like a slacker 😛 lol. I would maybe vary the height on the center sail for variety and make it taller and maybe break the top horizon line a bit.

                                        Happy Creating

                                          @Ace-Connell thanks for the tips. I still have to work on the exercises of this workbook, but I'm kinda trying to put the lessons of this class on use in some of my Inktober drawings.

                                            i would love to but I am busy with so many other projects, it might be something i can do in the future.
