Zayed - Art School Journey

Hi everyone. I'm a 28 years old programmer with 2 kids and a full time job.
I joined the program hoping to make my dream of becoming an artist a reality.

I always loved drawing but I never felt that it's something I'm allowed to pursue.
My goal is to be a fantasy concept artist with decent illustration skills.

This is the first online community I join and I hope to learn and help others as I get better at it.

Hi there, welcome I only started this week and already learned a lot.
Looking forward to your assignments/projects!

Hi Julia, thanks for the warm welcome. I can't wait to start doing them. Good luck to both of us.

My PC died and I did this on the floor on my laptop. I didn't know I sucked this much at pen control. I think I'm going to do this assignment as a warm up before every class from now on.

Honestly I didn't fully understand the Levels and Curves yet but I played around with them until they looked close.
I'm not sure when to move to the next assignment. Should I just do one as best I can and move to the next one? or wait until I do one correctly then move on.

This one was fun but I didn't use a lot of the tools we learned in the lecture. I wanted to do more with the fish and make it more like a lovecraft monster. I'm gonna play around a little bit more with the healing tools.
