cjs18 day 1 – Mystele

This is the third time I’ve done CJS (Creative Jump Start). I love starting the year with daily art, learning new things and being inspired by amazing artists from around the world. You can find out more on Nathalie Kalbach’s website.

The first daily challenge went up this morning. As this is a paid workshop I won’t share all the details…

I followed Mystele Kirkeeng’s lead fairly closely. Early on, I decided I didn’t like to woman I’d drawn and was about to start again when I realised that would be against the theme of ‘play’ so I just kept going, and am ok with the final result. It’s quite different to what I normally do, but I can still see my hand in it – so yay for day 1!

    Oh man!!! I am so glad you fought against that urge to “fix” the face. You did it!! And what a wonderful start to learning how YOU create faces. Here’s a link to some of my first faces- https://www.flickr.com/photos/littleglimpses/albums/72157608151559477

    I really like your colorful piece. It is so great that you didn’t start over. I had some parts I didn’t like in mine, too, but the first instinct is often more interesting and teaches us more.
