Okayy. Lemme explain the title here. Im in my first art class (woohoo!) this semester at the Visual Art Center of Montreal. Last class, we learned how to do shadows, since ive been doing lineart most of the time and doing cartoonish sketches, I though I'd SUCK but really really SUCK at shading.

As a homework, we were told to draw 2 simple objects together and do the shading. Since im in this class to learn, and decided I wouldnt take it easy. I had the wonderfull idea to drawww.. yeeup, a flowerpot!

So here I go, draw the outlines of a flowerpot and now I start shading it. Well, good news, I can shade and for a 2nd or 3rd try in my entire life, or something like that, its really not too bad. Only problem, its lonnnnng o.o!

In my mind I was like "Well since I suck at shading, ill be able to experiment various technique on the different leafs and stuff =3 and since im not very experimented, I wont see much details so it wont be long!

Well here I am, it takes me 1H to shade the first leaf and 2More to shade the paper ribon (oh yeah, theres a ribbon too around that Evil FLowerpot..! cute ribbon but still Evil cute Ribbon).

So here's an advice feelow furrs =3 NEVER understimate yourselves <3 and dont draw Evil FlowerPots.
