We had no electricity all week - I'm an old hand at being really conscious of how I use the internet/screen time under normal circumstances anyway, but it was a pleasure all the same to discover *just how much more* being cut off entirely is. Childhood boredom. Motivating enough to dig out some drawing books and actually do the basic activities.

I'm using How To Render by Scott Robertson & Thomas Bertling. Rendering is 'light and shade of objects' and I can now do some pretty impressive 3D boxes in different colours. It's amazing how fast you learn when doing basics so long as the explanation is concice and clear, I can feel my brain rewiring around the new skills and it's fab.
