added comment inDemo - Line Master Studies - Jeff Watts
Here is my study from Eliza Ivanova. I found it quite difficult because Eliza Ivanova uses so few lines, but they're just so relevant every time. My first drawing is the one with just the lines, then I added the shadows.
Every comment is welcome!

Your study turned out great! Eliza Ivanova's use of lines is so intentional and precise. I especially like how you captured the fluid, crisp lines in the hair and the volume of the sleeves. A very thoughtful study!

I chose to do a study of Eliza Ivanova's works. This was so challenging but also very educational. I admire her work, but doing a study of it made me appreciate it even more. Her lines are so precise and fluid at the same time, as a beginner it was difficult for me to capture that. I'm trying to break the habit of using too many "scratchy" nervous lines in my work, so this was a perfect exercise for that! Feedback is always welcome. :) Thank you!

Personally, I found this way of designating line weight way more challenging compared to hierarchy of importance. But I thought it was such a useful practice! Feedback is always welcome, thank you! :)

I think some of the line weight decisions I made are somewhat random and could probably be more consistent/thoughtful.

I was surprised at how difficult it was to include a variety of line weights. Also, I think my line quality still needs some work, that's for sure!

I was a bit worried and intimidated by the hand, but I ended up having the most fun drawing it!

New version after demo
Although I was satisfied with my first attempt, I have the feeling that I am getting too lost in the details. So my goal in this exercise was to make the lines as simple as possible. It's amazing what simplifying can do :-)

Did my best to try and keep myself from getting lost in the details with the “After Demo” attempts.

Feeling a bit dissatisfied with my process of doing the boots the first time (left pic), I re-did them a second time after watching the demo (right pic). They both look like boots but...
Hi Nancy! I see so much improvement in your second attempt. Your lines flow better and look more confident. Just by looking at these images I can tell that a lot of learning is happening, keep up the great work!

The wood was the hardest part. Lol. The boots were much harder than the snail. Criticism is welcome. I’ll do the lvl 2 tomorrow.
I also found the boots to be challenging. But I definitely see some confident lines in your drawings, especially in the curves and laces of the right boot!
