Topic: Week 4 Questions and Discussion

Welcome to the final lesson in our third workshop. We're glad to have you join us. Feel free to ask anything about lesson four here.

Hi all! I'm excited to see your work. This drawing was the most fun for me, as I love "building" imaginary spaces that I can fill in with creative details. As you approach this drawing, I'd invite you to think about how you can make this greenhouse your own: what cool plants, trinkets, furniture, design finishes etc can you add? Let me know! And be sure to post your drawings :)
This was a new way to add details to create more depth, altho I do need to spend more time to create that, I did gain insight on how far I can push the ink drawings with hatching. The different mixed media papers are an excellent alternative to the usual watercolor paper etc. I haven't used an angle brush or flat brushes much, but now I'm liking the details of those. I've always been curious about the inks, and will be adding more colors to my supplies. I will utilize these techniques and materials in teaching my future art classes! Thanks for sharing and your time, 🩵 your Instagram, am sharing it with my comic illustration class!

Our weeks are getting more and more full of doctors appts heading into my son’s radiation treatment, but we managed to squeeze in time to get to this last lesson today, and I’m glad we made the effort—this was a challenge for each of us for different reasons (we both decided we would come at the structure from a completely different strategy than yours, Sam—our brains definitely think of the tops of the angles of houses before the sides😂)! We both thought our greenhouses were gonna end up disasters, but by the time we were finished we actually were pretty happy with our imaginary garden sheds! Not an irl plant in either, but had a fun time making wonky shrubs and lines from our imaginations! Thank you SO much for these creative moments away from our stressful lives, Sam—loved spending this inky time with my Sam learning about the way you approach your subjects!!💚
Really enjoyed your 4th lesson. Thank you for creating this. I give up on a drawing long before defeat should be declared.
