Slowvember is over!

The 4 thumbs I picked to sketch were 20, 22, 37, & 40. My final started as thumb 22!

Well worth the effort though. You don't get really creative until you have to push the boundaries!

Kind of like @Will-Terry and his Inktober drawings (like he said on 3-point Perspective).

@Lee-White thank you! I made it through Slowvember this year and I’m so glad I did it. I learned a lot. Now for that studio clean up...

@Lee-White Thank you for the challenge. I definitely grew because of it

Woo! So many wonderful slowvember pieces. Every one with their own flavor and subject. Was a pleasure to watch it all come together.

I participated, but last minute... Though I did do thumbnailing, which I've avoided in the past. I've always been the type to dive right into a drawing and finish whatever comes out first.

Your thumbnailing tips have really helped me break through my art block, and have also helped me to relax about coming up with a good idea, as well as pushing to get the best version of that idea.

I don't know why, but I was embarrassed to do loose sketching in the past. Now I realize that midset just held me back.

Thank you for the advice and everything you do!

@Lee-White Great exercise, I defo got a decent piece for my portfolio. Unfortunately I was a bit too slow. Finished the painting but the black ink was too glossy to photograph it. I'm getting a polariser this week to add to the lights so I can get a better shot of it.

Thanks Lee for the inspiration, here is my late slowvember watercolor image, still not quite done, but I wanted to share. As you know I have always struggled with value, so I really wanted to push myself. Also afraid of crowd scenes so I tried to tackle both. Thanks again for being such a great teacher/mentor. All of you at SVS as well~
