Day 6. This is a nice workaround for tubes. The gap is a minor annoyance, but manageable. @Cassel Are brushes program specific? I first installed the ones you provided using Photo. When they didn't show up, I followed the instructions and installed them using Designer, where they do appear. I also notice that other brushes from my stash that I installed using Photo do not appear in Designer.

Day 3. Overall, I found it easier to trace in Affinity. However, when I worked on a more intricate pattern, the process required the same amount of work.

Day 7—The tubes are from the store. I always have trouble grabbing the correct little node created by the knife, so I go through a lot of trial and error. When I do manage, it's a great tool to have.

Day 6 - Both of the tubes are from the store. @Cassel Carol, I ran into problems with the earlier lesson because I was working from memory. I would forget a step or do it out of order. It's akin to trying to remember a recipe you haven't used in a while. There's always an ingredient you forget or a spice you didn't remember to buy.

Day 5. Learning from previous exercises, I can affirm that following directions makes things easier. My high school chemistry teacher is nodding in the "I told you so" way she had.

Day—As I worked on this assignment, I thought back to my high school chemistry teacher, Mrs. Gadd. A sign behind her desk read, "If all else fails, follow directions." That sums up my experience with this exercise.

Day 3 - I used this exercise to practice extractions instead of making preset shapes. Each leaf was a separate layer, and I extracted it using SELECTION/FROM VECTOR OBJECT. Of course, as AI tools improve, precise extractions will soon be a lost art. Still, it was good practice.

Day 1 - Got off to a slow start this week. We've had some wicked storms in the area that knocked out power. Fortunately, we had no damage. Unfortunately, the folks weren't so lucky a few miles to the west.

In Miami, anything was an excuse for a party to mark every milestone. The Latin culture is known for its all-out celebrations. A party for graduating from day care would involve 30-40 people, including abuelos, tios, and cousins you didn't know you had. It would be an all-day affair with a seemingly endless amount of food and drink, and everyone would be dressed in their finest outfits. It was a pretty amazing experience for a boy from Alabama who grew up with small birthday parties at the park.

My cat, Rudy, has become increasingly arthritic, so I got pet steps to help him get on the sofa. Catnip got him to the steps, but he would only graze on the first step. I picked him up and placed him on each step until he understood how to navigate them. It took a few tries before he felt comfortable. Dogs are so much easier. Years ago, I had an arthritic dog. I patted my hand on the top step, and he walked up with no problem because he knew he would get a chin scratch for his effort. Cats are not so gullible.
