      Hello everyone,

      Hope you are having a great day!

      I have just joined SVS as someone who picked up drawing and doodling in my 30’s as a creative outlet from my day job. Not really knowing how to take my skill beyond a beginner level, I joined SVS to improve my skill and meet people who are interested in achieving the same.

      At the moment, I am not sure if I have a style of my own or what exactly it is I want to illustrate so am looking forward to exploring this more.

      I do tend to work more traditionally, with most my experiencing coming from pens and watercolours! However I would like to explore using procreate to make edits and improvements the art work I produce. If anyone has any good classes they could point me in the direction of that would be great!

      Its great to join the community and so far the foundations courses have pushed my ability forward in such a short space of time. If anyone else is currently doing the foundations it would be great to hear from you!

      Thanks everyone and good to meet you!

      Nick

            @Nicholas-Kirkman Welcome in! I'm always working on foundations and refreshing myself on them considering I didn't go to art school either.

            Do you have an online presence where we can view your work?

                @Nicholas-Kirkman Hi Nick, welcome! Im also working in the foundation levels, though have really slowed down since the new year. It gives so much great pointers and skill. Understanding it and getting it executed for me are two very different things. Love to see your work!
