THE DETAILS:

This project is fairly self-explanatory. Use Affinity Photo and a drawing tablet on the iMacs or the Canvas App on your chromebook to draw one or a series of artwork.
Create your own collection and display it anyway you'd like. It could be a slideshow in a presentation, video, website or anything else you think would be a good way to get your work out to the public. Maybe even hang it in a green screen art gallery and have people walk through!
