Like the last assignment, I kept the subject relatively simple so that I could focus more on layer organization and process. I did this using the bottlenose brush out of the new default gouache brushes, and I really enjoyed it, and am especially happy with how I was able to finally get some sharp edges where I wanted them! This was also the most orderly process I've had so far, where I felt pretty confident about what steps I'd do after the next, which helped improve my confidence and let me think through things much more easily than before. I'm also learning I'm super a fan of doing a saturated values block-in at the start of the process (that Jon did in one of the demos), and even when only some of the colors leak through it adds such a charm to the final product. It also just helped with planning things out and making artistic decisions more iteratively rather than feeling like I'm starting with the final draft.
