Have you considered continuing, adding more detail, on rough-ins like this one the following week?

Chris: Is it possible that the file for the photo is corrupted? When I download and try to open it, I get an error message that the file type is not supported. I've not had this problem with any of your other files, including the file for your painting of this picture.

Chris Fornataro

hmmm that's weird. It works when I open it and I haven't had anyone else tell me they had a problem. Sometimes Patreon doesn't work well on certain devices like iPads and certain browsers like Firefox. Maybe try changing one of those and see if solves the problem.

Jeffrey Johnston

Thanks. No luck. Tried two different laptops with two different browsers. No worries, I will do the same exercise with the barn landscape.

Sarah Keiser

Chris, I think the problem might be that the photo is not .jpg but stored as a .bin file?

Sarah Keiser

Update: the .bin was the problem. I had to download an app to convert the file to open it

Sarah Keiser

I really liked this exercise and learned a lot about simplifying shapes and mixing colors. I really would like more of these! (And can we get a still life folder to search, like the landscape and portrait ones?) Thank you!

Sarah Keiser

I can search "still life" but only a few things come up. Otherwise the only thing that comes up at the top of the page is "landscape 33 posts" and "portrait 27 posts". Nothing for still life. I can screen shot it

Chris Fornataro

When I look at the still life group there are 17 in it. If you're in the $5 tier you won't have access to all of them

Sarah Keiser

I've always been in the $9 tier. Sorry, just realized I was a dumb donkey and you can swipe over the folders at top. Yes, there is a still life one and others. Sorry for wasting your time today 😬

I would like to try this exercise as my first one. I had a question, I did not have sap green but I do have Viridian and Pthalo. Can I use any substitutes?

Parastoo

Would you do one like this with portrait? Thank you.
