Always had diffculty drawing two sides of a Christmas Tree the same way. One side always looks strange. Didn't know it was all about symmetry! Thanks!! SKY-

I've got to practice this lesson for a while because it's harder than it appears to be a first glance. Brenda suggest to do these 5-10 minutes, a day, and that is exactly what I need to do. How about you?...practice, practice, practice...my hand hurts.

I get so pissed with symmetry especially at faces and I'm very glad I found these exercises.They seem simple but they aren't and I found enough difficulty ,but I believe that my skills will improve over time through such practice.

This was fun! It turned out good, although there are quite a few things I would like to improve. I am doing more symmetry drawing exercises from now on:)
