Hello all,
I'm running about a week behind on this course so my apologies for the late post.
Sounds like we all want to keep going after this course is over. I've loved getting to learn so much and connecting with you all here. The forum over the last 3 sessions has been really a wonderful thing for me- I don't have any art friends IRL so it's been so great to hear from others with the same passion and interests. I've really enjoyed seeing everyone's work and hearing (reading) your thoughts on all these different subjects.
I've thought about what is next for me quite a lot. There's so much more to learn and I feel like I'm just getting started with all of this. I will definitely be taking the course on how to paint birds with Jane Kim, and continuing with the botanicals as well through books and tutorials. If I can find another course that is online and structured like this one, I'd love to keep going in a more formal way as well. I've found that the structure of this course has really helped me advance quicker than if I were to only try tutorials that I 'felt like' doing. There's something about being required to do an assignment that really helped me to stretch my capabilities!
