Where are you at?

What has been the most challenging aspect of the course so far?
The most challenging part of the course so far has been creating the illusion of texture and showing that objects are on something and are not just floating. 
In what areas have you progressed the most and how have you progressed? 
I have progressed in creating the correct shades with the limited colors provided by trying different colors and also asking Miss Roberts. 
How does looking at examples of paintings from throughout history affect us as painters today?
I think that by looking at other paintings helps us get new ideas from them. Also we learn what some of them did that make their painting look really good. Looking at other paintings also broadens our artistic minds.
