May the force be with you!

@burvantill Good job on exploring all those ideas! I like last row the best.

@JennyJones Thank you! I'm playing around with this character a little bit, try to find some story for her... But I definitely hope to post some picture with her for the contest. But since I've never drawn mermaids in my life, I'm super nervous, the more I sketch and draw this one, I see how complex creatures mermaids can be.

I love this idea! And I love cats too, see you on #catsofjune

I'm working on a layout for one of my own picture book, trying to participate in mermay (but I've actually never ever draw a mermaid before, so it's freaking me out!), and working on sketches for a book with cute short rhymes for children - I'm very excited about this one, it looks I might get a few nice portfolio pieces out of this.

@Jake-Parker I'm so sorry to hear about Will Terry's loss. No one can be ever prepared for such a thing...I've lost my beloved brother this year and I'm coping since... there's a one scripture that helped me to see through the dark days: "Our God is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit."
I always admired the way Will talked about his wife, so kindly and respectfully, he must love her very much and I can only imagine how hard it all must be for him and the family. I'm with you all in my prayers...

@MichaelaH me too!
So I gave my self a challenge - draw 30 illustration,digitally, but use no undo button, no eraser, none of these amazing photoshop magic. Just one type of pencil. It was an eye opener. I learned the undo button helps me to be bold and do a thing, because I know I always can change it. On the other hand, when I couldn’t use the undo, I was more aware of what I’m doing, putting more interest into my process of painting. But sure I was glad to come back to my precious beloved undo button after those 30 paintings
Sorry for being off topic ️

Hi, I’m doing the draw gesture class too, may I join in?
Here is my attempt to the 30 sec and 2 min poses. I decided to go old fashion with pencil/paper combo, since these two buddies were waiting reallyyyyyy long time for me to use them. it was quite fun, I can’t wait for my next morning drawing session.

@MichaelaH I hope so! Have fun there, I was at Bologna only once, in 2014, and it was an absolutely amazing experience. Back then, I worked in a publishing house as creative manager, so I looked at the whole thing with a different eye, but still, it was great and I hope to be there again.

Right now me too, I'm finishing my website (I still need to add some about me page, which is super hard, I have absolutely no idea what to write!) and in spear time I'm doing my research about mailing postcard services. I also found vistaprint.com does that. But I think I'll keep looking
