Hello, tried to copy some artworks after artist I admire. It truly helped me, not only in the understanding of shape design, but composition aswell!

Hello everybody! Posting yesterdays drawing. Didnt really feel like re-measuring so Ive only relied on my instincts. Really loved the idea of not outlining everything, I just have to get better at it haha. The green was only to make it a bit more exciting, but then again it was more difficult to erase my mistakes. Anyways, have a nice weekend!

At last, Ive finished this project. What a difficult task this was! Especially being concentrated for the whole time... Although I must admit that on both of these when doing the detailing I started to feel kinda exhausted and maybe rushed it a little (like in - eyeing out too much). Anyways, going to inspect what mistakes Ive made, have a nice day everyone!

Hello everyone! At last I´ve finished the measuring project. This really was a difficult assignment. Wasn´t really sure if I should watch Stans video or not, so after he showed how to measure some proportions proprerly, I went in myself and did it kinda on my own. I might try again after watching it whole. It really is awesome having the instant feedback so that one can improve as much as they please. Anyways, have a nice day! PS: Sorry for the smudging of the sketch!

Simple animal portraits, Level 2

Second attempt on shape-ifying animal portraits! Tried to do some more exaggerated ones like Stan did in his demo. Really happy with how few of these turned out! Had a fun time too, and as always, have a nice day :)

Hello everybody! Posting my first attempt on the level 2 project. Really glad I decided to do these, havent had so much fun whilst simply drawing in a long time! Anyways, always happy to get any kind of critique...Even though I tried to spread the drawings evenly in my mind It got a bit too close in the bottom half, hopefully ill get better at it bit by bit haha. Have a nice rest of the day!

Second try after the demo! Really pleased with how the buffalo turned out...Just wished I was better at positioning the drawings beforehands so that all of them would fit haha. Always happy for any sort of criticism! Wishing everybody a nice evening :)

Hello everybody, posting my simplified animals. This assignment was really fun! But to be honest Im not sure if I didnt overwork some of these. The most difficult drawings were probably the cat, bison and the boar, but in the end i was able to finish them to a point where i felt they looked fine. If youve got anything to say, please let me know! Always happy to learn. Be well until then :)

Hello again! drew some more ink masterstudies of charles dana gibsons drawings after watching the demo. Sketching the lay-in and trying out the different stroke types beforehands was super useful! Although I was still able to make an immense mistake haha. Next time ill try drawing regular portraits from what Ive learned so far, wish me luck by then! Be well :)

2nd attempt after watching the demo! Still not perfectly happy with how i was learning the linework jackie does, so as Stan said, I will do these studies more often and think about the line quality that ive used whenever i can. Be well everyone!

Posting as promised the Charles Dana Gibson studies. It was really fun to get to know a little about such an amaying artist and the way he drew his artworks. If anybody has any thoughts to my drawings please tell me! Always happy to learn new stuff :) Be well

Hello everybody! Its been far too long since Ive posted here on the last Proko course assignment. I did some Jackie Droujko line studies, love her shape design and coloring skills, shes an awesome teacher too! Well, but when i tried to observate her line techniques i realized that its more of an intuitive style. Or at least thats what I believe is happening. Hopefully I was able to understand her choices at least a little, If youve got some critique, or youre seeing something that Im not, please tell me! Next Ill be trying to draw some Charles Dana Gibson studies. Be well until then. :)

Hello again! Posting two hieararchy of importance rhinos this time. One was done with a brush pen and the other one simply with a 4B pencil. It is still very clear how much I struggle with the brush pen, but I do find myself getting at least a bit better...Which is satisfying. Hopefully Stan shows use some of his marker skills too haha. PS: The close up of Stan drawing the baggy eyelids was so great...It really shows how great of a draftsperson he is!

Level one and two rhino assignments. I really love this lesson so far! I ve been always afraid of lineweight and never quite understood how to use it in any drawings, but now it was finally explained to me. Really keen on doing drawings from life using lineweight! PS: keep up the effort everybody! :)

Learning to Sketch from Observation: After demo: 1st pic is the searching line for the hand; 2nd is the bold line after the search. It is hard not to switch to measuring so proportions are not perfect but am I executing the process properly? I have to say it was much more fun to use the tapered line search rather than the contour line I have been relying on. Nice to have more lines in my arsenal.

Drew some pandas in different shapes, so that I could finally tackle my brothers tattoo wish...I´m not sure if the final product has enough character, but it sure was fun. :)

Posting some sketches of other stuff as Stan mentioned. It was really fun, especially drawing Louis! Drawing hands is still difficult thouh...Anyways, have a nice day/evening

Here's my submission. I made 2 attempts at the full-page sketch from imagination. I'm not sure If this is what the assignment required, were we supposed to stylise and exaggerate our subject?
