Drawing Without Fear: A Self-Care Approach to Daily Creativity

Wow this portrait is really well done, I like the facial expression a lot!

Hi EmThanks for sharing your project, I'm glad you found the class useful. You've got beautiful lines and washes on the portrait - lovely work! And I like how vigorous your marks are in the flower drawings, there's a real sense of energy in there. I definitely hope it inspires you to keep going and be fearless!Thanks Catherine

The flowers were painted along with your class and it was fun being playful and mixing media along with you. I tried watercolor pencils on top of wet paint and my paper wasn't loving it ~ but still fun to experiment. The portrait I made after feeling more fearless.. What's the scariest thing to draw? For me that is people and faces. So I used those same stubborn watercolor pencils and gave it a go. It might not seem like it has to do with this class but I was trying to draw a hard subject without fear. 
Thanks again for your classes! :)

Hi Em This is so awesome... choosing to tackle the hardest subject without fear... (and look how you nailed it!!). But even if you hadn't nailed it, the fact that you experimented and went for it would be the win to hold onto. Thanks for sharing this.

This class was a great excuse to just keep going!
