“Never tell a young person that anything cannot be done. God may have been waiting centuries for someone ignorant enough of the impossible to do that very thing.” — John Andrew Holmes

  • Focus on the figure, Proportions, Scale, Sighting In
  • Full Page, Composition
  • 2.1Ad: Experiment, plan, and make multiple works of art and design that explore a personally meaningful theme, idea, or concept.

Step back – how did it turn out? Give a thought here – think about your work and step back with pride in the process.
