My Personality Test - Intuitively sketched!

What an inspiring and lovely morning sketch session! I love the result, and loved the process.

So, following along with the ever-sweet Masholand, I actually tried to ignore her personal ideas for each piece because I really wanted to see what would come up for me with the simple idea of a prompt each time. I also fought the urge to consider the whole 'scene' from the beginning, as I know I tend to do this as an Architect from years of thinking of the macro and micro at the same time. I let the details come as I sketched, and I was actually quite surprised at the result - especially the detail of the carpet. (Now I want to find these pieces and decorate my home LOL) Also, I'm not sure why I thought three vases were appropriate when the prompt was clearly just singular, but then I love how this ended up being the 'ideal partner' as I am polyamorous after all! I think I was also influenced by my real life view at the time, as I was sitting at a seaside cafe; But I do adore a sea view, for many deep reasons.I took snapshots at each stage (almost missed the first one before drawing the chair) -- I'll upload each cuz I think it's cool to see how it came together.

Here's the carpet with the chair:

And the final piece with notes, over my beautiful IRL view of the sea here in sunny Sarandë, Albania!

Thank you so much for this very inspiring and illuminating little course, Masholand!
