Today is the last day of learning and practice for the cartoon challenge! I actually first freaked out a bit realizing how different the caricature drawing felt from the practices I've done before. Then I analyzed the differences - as long as I make the eyes and mouth more realistic, and add some more strokes to the hair, the cartoon practice is still the foundation. After today, cartoons will become part of my daily blog. So more fun & creative works ahead :D

Discovered proko’s course on caricatures, so now I can properly address the pain points :D

Lesson learnt today

Day off from the sketchnote challenge - because I’m sick and couldn’t spend that much time staring at screens. Musings on public commitment and how intentions matters and will change your perspective!

Day 3 of Sketchnote Challenge. Attempted to live sketchnote Alex Blumberg’s talk on the power of audio storytelling.

CreativeLive has a course on sketchnote. I'll go through it tomorrow. You can get it too, referral here will even give you $15 off, only the first 10 though. https://refer.creativelive.com/s/Charlotte81

Worked on the fundamentals of sketchnote, structures, containers, connectors and started to build my own visual icon! Very fun process. What did you learn today?

New 7-day challenge on sketchnote starts tomorrow. Loved Jay’s videos, also his story.

In Japanese TVs, there are often portrayal of families with complete lack of emotional communication, yet it’s been painted as common occurrence. EQ education is urgently needed! Also, check out Ben Yu’s autobiography in progress themed around embracing failure and the story of how he went from having no friends plus suicidal to changing his life around in 2.5 years https://goo.gl/8bWBuu

Happy Easter Brainies! Getting back to my own timetable tomorrow. Feel like I swapped around Easter break to the past couple of days. A good friend is coming to visit end of April. So I have 4 weeks to satisfy my own hunger first before engaging the community! Exciting!
