Spring is the one I long for most of the four seasons. This season has had a special meaning to me since my childhood. This time of the year gives me so much energy and positive vibes.
Architecture has always fascinated me. I’m lucky enough to live in one of England’s most architecturally rich cities, Cambridge. The iconic historic university buildings, the cobbled streets
Recognising the tones and values is essential in one’s art journey. I don’t have a formal art degree, therefore, I try to learn about the basics as much as I can.
One of the things that fascinate me in this painting journey is the colours. Working with them can be stressful and overwhelming, but they can be a joy if used correctly. There is no shortcut to finding the colour palettes and combinations that work. Exploring them requires a lot of time and patience. I gave myself time to experiment and play with my palette’s colours.
This was an excellent course to remind me that I can find interesting subjects to sketch in the house as well. In most cases, we just pass by the objects which live with us in our homes, and we don’t really see them, only use them. The challenge of this class was to observe and draw a scene from our surroundings.
I chose this class mainly because I was curious about how the teacher incorporates figures in his drawings. Taking this class, I realised that it’s not that scary, and including some human figures in a sketch tells a story and adds more energy and life to the drawing.
This is a comprehensive course about watercolour, it took me 2 months to finish it. It’s a well-packed class recommended for enthusiastic beginners or experienced artists who wish to step outside their comfort zone. It’s built up gradually, which helped me understand and learn many things about watercolour, drawing, and painting.
When Robert published this course, it was no question that I would join this challenge. I just finished one of his other classes, and I wanted to start another one. Although this class aimed to be a daily challenge, I did it differently.
This was a delightful class from the start until the end. It took me a bit more time, like 2-3 weeks, to complete this class. Not because of its length but because I gave myself more time to observe my surroundings and enjoy drawing them.
