Thank you Ginny. I am trying to focus on value and really improve my use of value in my drawings before I start to use color. I didn’t expect to enjoy the process as much as I do. Hopefully others will jump in and share their work.

This is gorgeous! I am currently focused on pastels but I would love to give this a try.

Thank you. Pastel drawings are my goal but I am not ready to add color yet. I have a lot to learn in that area. I am slowly working my way through Matt’s lessons and the member’s minutes… I learn so much from his critiques.
