This art class this year was a roller coaster of experiences! Comparing it to all my previous art classes, this one was definitely challenging.

I also think this exercise really helped me with painting what I see, instead of what I assume. Also, capturing the small details in each object. A new beginning of color! This part of the still life oil painting process was definitely the most nerve-racking part of the process. I was
