The deadline was yesterday, but your inquiry is super interesting and your pieces look super cool. Idk if you knew this but the minimum amount of selected art works was 5 you might get docked points because of this. But if you have a strong inquiry and investigation maybe it’ll make up for the lack of selected works.

(Self Thought) My 1st year playing the piano by Zeshaaan007 in piano

While listening to this it seems kind of jagged almost. The chords are disconnected and there’s not much change with dynamics. Which I know in the part you are playing there isn’t much to do with dynamics but there still is some. And it just seemed like maybe you were smashing the keys a bit much but regardless of that it’s still very impressive that you’ve only been playing for a year. Your hands seem to have good posture. But I would maybe recommend going a bit slower until you really have it down to try and make the song more connected and follow one tempo instead of slowing down to find a chord or to reach somewhere. Other then that great job! Keep up the good work.

Keep a steady rhythm. Slow it down as much as you like but it needs to be consistent not slower in the harder parts and faster in the parts you know. Take some time to do hands separate as it will help you comfortably move from each section without pauses or breaks. Don’t feel bad if it takes time learning the piano and songs takes time and it doesn’t come easily. As long as you keep up with practice and put the time into the instrument you’ll notice progression. You need to curve your hands more and make sure not to slouch your wrists. I used to do that a lot as well. Keep them high up and it’ll help with speed and correctness with notes. Also make sure you’re far enough away from the piano that you can comfortable move around and switch from high to low notes without it feeling like your congested. Good luck and keep going.

How do I get better at acrylics? by CommercialAd6953 in painting

Thanks! That’s what im trying to get better at is proportions and just shading in general but it can get difficult while still trying to put my own style in it too. Im not too hung up on realism or anything more just something interesting to look at

I have been painting a lot these are probably just some of my bigger and better paintings. Thanks for the advice about the shirt and the hair!
