Carve a Halloween Pumpkin

by julieIn Progress

Throw a successful pumpkin carving party!! Year 2 is so important in setting up a yearly tradition

Train an experienced barista how to do a rosetta design

by ryanIn Progress

Teaching someone the techniques is a little easier when they already have good milk quality. I find the part that every barista that I have taught struggles with, is the cut through at the end. Going to continue working with her and others I train on going quick at the end to avoid a thick stem.

Complete a latch hook kit

by heatherIn Progress

Most of this progress was made during the first few days of starting the project. I had to take a few weeks off due to my job getting extra busy, as well as a new puppy and other life things. I was also having trouble with my eyesight (dealing with migraines), so I started using sticky notes to follow each row of the pattern. and got my eyes checked (glasses secured). I made time for a few more rows this weekend and I’ll try to do a little each day, if I can.

Make a handmade item for a baby boy

by mar_marCompleted

I shouldn’t have committed to finishing on a week day. Although it was almost done, I didn’t have the energy to concentrate on it on a Friday evening.

Draw in a stylistic way a tennis woman

by klaiimandCompleted

This was the most enjoyable part of the project. Delving into the details of the drawing, refining the facial features, and continuously composing in the same style is very enriching. I really felt that all the previous steps allowed me to enjoy the drawing; it’s at this final stage that it takes on meaning, and the small details give it substance.

Create something unique

by mar_marCompleted

I work without a plan so hock ups along the way are inevitable. In this case they turned out to be the key to making a truly unique piece of clothing.

Draw anatomically accurate people

by interficiorIn Progress

I've always loved drawing and doodling but never took the steps many artists do to learn anatomy to better their understanding of the human for. I wish to start from scratch and educate myself in the skeletal and muscular systems of the body to enhance my art to the next level.
