tutorial failure

 


I don't know why, but tutorials are probably the worst way for me to learn.  I feel like I'm copying a painting or even steps of a painting.  I think I would do better if I could have the steps but work from life or a phot rather than follow someone else's painting.  


Anyway, this never amounted to anything.  It's also the wrong time of year to be thinking of cherry blossoms when I'm having to keep the frost off the humming bird feeders.

Learning styles are a fascinating study in themselves. I think way back when (medieval times?) painting was studied by imitation. I have to agree that personal exploration, or even better guided exploration, is a wonderful way to learn.
