I’ve never taken a formal art class. I’ve watched some videos online and stuff but beyond that.. so I’m taking some online courses at Schoolism. I didn’t pay the big bucks to get direct feedback but I’ve been doing some colour studies and just the demos and all that are so helpful. I’m looking forward to growing as an artist as I’ve been feeling pretty stagnant. Anyway. First assignment was some rough master studies with a focus on general shape and colour choosing.
