Okay, I seriously, seriously can't believe I painted this. God! When I told people I was going to take an art class, a lot tapped their foreheads. I had a feeling that an art class might be an idea, but this - I seriously didn't think I'd produce stuff like this after five weeks. O_O

(And least of all, I expected tips like "buy new brushes!" to hit home like this!)

Taliesin, Watercolour on Fabriano cold-press paper. 19 cm. 

I wanted to film this - but my battery just wasn't up to it. I bought another battery now plus a loading device, so I hope the next piece will be easier to record. But I took a lot of photos and will put together a plaid tutorial.

Wow!!! Just lovely!! The detail is amazing, your art class seems to have given you a whole new outlook and loads of different ideas. Delighted for you!

Jenny Dolfen

The ideas are, in part, really old! I just pushed them away again and again as I wasn't sure how to tackle them. I've gained a lot of confidence in approaching stuff.

Your art style is still very much *yours*, but it's been exiting to watch it change. I'm glad you're getting so much out of this class. :)

Alexandra Rena

He is stellar!!!! It is good to see you enjoying your class so much !

Sommer Sorenson

This turned out absolutely beautiful! I'm so glad that you are enjoying and benefiting from your art class :-) It is encouraging to me, a beginner, to see an already amazing artist find enjoyment in learning even more. You constantly make me want to challenge myself. However, I'm my worst enemy and often talk myself out of working on the things I want to do. I hope I can gain some confidence. Again, wonderful work!

I really like what you've learned in that class. Can't wait to see more "new generation" pictures! :D I still hope one day there'll be a Silmarillion edition with your illustrations. :)

Jenny Dolfen

That's the good thing about weekly art classes - you have to produce, and you get personalised critique and ideas to get better. Plus challenges. ;)

This is brilliant, I was so excited to see it arrive in my inbox this morning! I love all the work you've done through this class, and this one in particular really stood out. Just gorgeous! And thanks so much for the plaid tutorial... trying to find an excuse to include plaid in my next picture now!

This is -gorgeous-, Jenny! Not that all your work isn't stunning already, but this kicked it up a notch! <3
