Sketch 5 Players, News and a Challenge

Good morning everyone!

You all seem to have so much fun with the sketches, but this week I thought we would try a challenge instead. However, I'm not going to make it too specific. What I want you to do is to try something that scares you. Is it paint? the color yellow? cutting a photo out freeform? just getting started?

Well, whatever it is, it's time to tackle the fear. This is something I know a lot about because I am afraid of lots of things. One of them is flying. But with each flight, I get a little bit better at it. In fact, I know longer have to chant, "It's going to be all right" under my breath for the duration of the flight. Nope, now I only do that until that beeb that lets you know you have reached altittude. My flying companinions are so happy about this!

If you would like to play this week, here's what to do: Create your layout, project or card using something that intimidates you a bit whether it's a color, technique, subject, etc. Then, post your creation online with a link here, and an explanation of the fear you overcame.

Good luck, you'll be so proud of yourself when you're done!
