The URL is still the same (<a href="http://roxannajackson.com/">http://roxannajackson.com</a>), but it will no longer be directed to this page. I will continue to use this page primarily as a blog for updates, WIPs, or anything else going on in my life.<div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Back in late April, I finished taking Vis Com 1: Dynamic Sketching at Concept Design Academy with Patrick Ballesteros</span><span style="font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif"; font-size: 16.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin;">–</span><span style="font-family: inherit;">a very talented artist and a great instructor. Prior to this class, I was never confident with rendering/sketching creatures, plants, forms, etc. So it was really nice going back to the basics for a change and learning some new techniques. I still have a lot to learn and improve on, but I look forward to developing my technique. If you're interested, or have been thinking about this class, I would highly recommend it!</span></div>

One is never done learning. I came across the talented Noah Bradley's Week 1: Master Studies video from his Art Camp course. Luckily for us, he provided the first demo for free! :) This video is chock-full of techniques and information that can be useful to anyone wanting to improve their artistic skills.<br />

Here are the paintings I selected for this study. A good majority of these came from the Art Renewal website (<a href="http://www.artrenewal.org/">www.artrenewal.org</a>) that Noah provided. </div>

In addition to his videos, Noah posts advice and shares personal experiences on his blog (<a href="http://www.noahbradley.com/blog/">www.noahbradley.com/blog</a>). A lot of his articles can be great food for thought to anyone going down an artistic career path.</div>
