这篇文章的中文版本是ChatGPT根据我的草稿写得出来的。英文部分则由ChatGPT翻译,有部分修改。The Chinese text below is generated by ChatGPT using my original manuscript.

I went to a bookstore and took an acrylic painting instruction book home. I’ve found less interest in acrylic, which is dry drastically fast.

Wall Art: Pumpkins and 3D Stems

  • by

I worked into wee hours last night to make an acrylic painting wall art and was too excited to fall asleep after finally making it. I planned to draw three pumpkins on the blank wood sign I bought from a local craft store, but eventually, it went five. I feel drowsy all day today and promised myself to sleep early tonight. The last thing I planned o draw was pumpkin stems, but I was too tired to do so. I got a brainwave and fetched some polymer clay from a bookshelf.

—— The answer was a raven —— My colleague Milt once introduced me to the Inktober program in 2019. Milt mainly uses the iPad to draw, and I enjoy watching his sketches on Facebook and Instagram. But I never thought about dusting off my drawing kits for the last two years. One of the Inktober drawing topics this year was Raven. I’ve hit by a sudden inspiration, and I picked up my newly bought Apple Pencil, trying to draw on my iPad Pro. The beautiful raven surprised me at last. I haven‘t drawn in a long while. This raven can… Read More »How Did All Things Start
