      Textures!!! Round 1

      I am really loving this section. It feels like things are finally starting to come together and all of the daily exercises are paying off! Thank you again @Braden-Hallett for putting this together. The two classes that I feel like I have learned the most from are the ones that you organized on the forum. It makes me realize how much I need structure, daily drawing, and assignments. I see the light at the end of the tunnel, BIG thanks 😊

        @Susan-Marks thanks! Yeah its a class at the school of visual arts in nyc. Its a continuing ed class. $400 for 3 months. 1 night a week. Basically we bring it a sketched page and an inked paged every week and have it critiqued.

          @Erin-Cortese Great job! I like how you are able to get value ranges with your textures. Bravo!👏👏👏
          I’m struggling with that.

              @Aleksey This is great. It must have taken you forever to do all those scales 🙂

                    3:30 am here and I woke up to draw it's turning into an addiction of sorts lol!

                    Damn I'm not THAT dedicated. I'm up at 5:00 am. Maybe I should push for 330 :smiling_face_with_open_mouth_cold_sweat:

                    my mind freezes trying to choose what sort of line to put down for each part of the illustration.

                    I feel your pain! I think this is one of those things where after enough practice (targeted practice) it just kinda... happens. And you won't notice until it's happened 🙂

                      @xin-li Damn that's beautiful! I let out an audible 'ooooooooh!' of appreciation when I opened up the thread this morning! I really think you're workin' on a winner style-wise here 😃

                        I feel like this, but each ball I’m juggling has a different project name on it

                        I've got a few things on the go, too 🙂 It's crazy how thing tend to pile up!

                          You're most welcome 🤗 I'm you're getting a lot out of these run-throughs! I get at least as much out of them as well.

                          Also, I am most jealous of your texture work 😃

                            @demotlj oh no! the trick is you lay down a "road" for the scales to follow in pencil, then quickly go in and make some scales. Nice and loose. The best area for it I think is the eye the rest was just filler.

                                    @Erin-Cortese this is so neat. Beautiful textures. Also love the typography for TEXTURE.

                                      @burvantill Thank you so much.
                                      @Braden-Hallett Thank you. I really do not know where I am going to take this style/technique next. I do not think I have allowed myself to paint so loosely before. Right now I just paint one picutre at time, building up quantity of work before figuring out where they belong to. I am consider incorprate watercolor, or playing with colored ink.

                                            And saw this flower today. Echinacea. How's this for texture?
