Yesterday, I, along with 7 of my wonderful Meade Girls, went to Hanover, Maryland (a 15-mile drive for me!) to take the COPIC Intermediate Certification class! We had taken the Standard class- all the way up in York, PA back in March 2012, so we were thrilled to FINALLY get to take the Intermediate class- and have it so close to home! Lori Craig was our instructor...and she was a FABULOUS teacher!! I do feel that I finally have some knowledge of how to shade and shadow now! Even though I LOVE the way the gray outline looks around the image, Lori told me that she'd take my certification pin away from me if I ever outlined again!! So.....guess I won't be doing that again! ;) (well, maybe...)
Here are some of the samples that we created...
This was our final project. Although I stressed over the shading and shadowing, I think the final product turned out pretty well!
Here we are, the Meade Girls, along with Lori Craig, with our certificates. Woo Hoo!
I know I still have to practice, but this class was SO worth the cost!! I highly recommend it!!!
They are all wonderful. you are so talented. Rose

ReplyDeleteMary, these samples are gorgeous! WOW. I am not a coloring crafter but it's mostly because I don't know how and don't have time to learn. Congrats on your certification.
