Worked on lesson 6 of SketchLoose free beginner's course last night. And used a blow dryer for the 1st time to accelerate the process! π¨ποΈ

I am super loving this artistic side of me! π¨ποΈ This is day five in Toby's free beginner course, "A House in Japan".
I guess I am an artist now.
My Escoda VersΓ‘til watercolor brushes have arrived!! I got the round brushes in sizes 10, 6 and 2 to get started :) Looking forward to painting EVERYTHING I see!!! π¨ποΈ

Today on Draw With Me, Charles Dickens' Ghosts of Christmas Past! Happy Holidays! πππ¨ποΈ

My first watercolor! I love how my sketch turned out, but the paint part was hard. That sky looks terrible, LOL! I kept practicing with other reference photos and eventually figured out what I was doing wrong (a mix of bad brushes and too little water). π¨

Today I joined a live Draw with Me with Danny Gregory on youtube, for the first time. The hour went by really fast, I had so much fun! Did my artwork with ink and crayola markers ππ¨ποΈ #SBSDrawWithMe
It it possible to use DxO Photolab to edit raw files produced by ANY camera that is not on their supported list, even from mobile phones such as Samsung and Xiaomi.

Moving on from this. Colored pencils are beautiful, but slow! I think my next one will be a base of water markers with the pencils on top. π¨ποΈ

First day doing the free course over at Sketch Loose and my first urban sketch ever! Learned to simplify shapes and draw from a reference image π¨ποΈπ Can't wait to learn about watercolors!
