    Hi!

    I have a question regarding the assignment for Week 3: Value grouping.

    Should this be done with black and white only, or with colour?

    Thanks,

    Raquel

    I wish these forums were more active, but I would say try with just black/white/gray tones for the beginners before jumping into color. For beginners, don’t go too deep into details otherwise you’ll be stuck doing homework forever. Just block out the value groups for each square. That way you won’t build a bad habit of painting an image in black and white before tacking on color

    Would you please be kind enough to re-upload the Bill’s PDF notes for each of these weeks? They may appear to be available in the reference section, but they cannot be downloaded. This is vital information.
