This took a couple try’s, but I think I’m getting the hang of it. I found it easier for me to start with Stan’s bean shape to capture the torso, then building off of that. Any feedback or tips and tricks?

I did a study of a sketch by Normand Rockwell. The thing that drew me to this piece were all of his lost lines, the way they convey the looseness of the hair or the contrast of a brightly lit object. Had tons of fun!

Here's my attempts at conveying the Hierarchy of Importance and Light and Shadow! I had fun with the Hierarchy of Importance but had a harder time trying to really force light and Shadow. I feel like I should've made the lines thicker where the highlights are sitting next to the darker areas, that could've given more contrast. Definitely gonna try again, had lots of fun!

Struggled a bit with this so I had to come back to it. It was hard too keep things consistent after I had an idea of how I wanted the bear to look but I think I got a bit better at that. The last three are from my second sitting.

Slowly acquiring a personality. Okay, i kind of stressed out over this assignment but i think i get it now— the more i draw them from imagination the more they’re acquiring a personality

I did a Long tailed Indian Paradise Flycatcher. I picked this animal because of the feathers on the head and the long flowy tail. I love how much movement and gesture the tail conveyed. I could've been much more dynamic with the final drawing, but that's ok.

Here's my snail and pair of boots! The boots were pretty challenging, mostly the laces. I found that I kept getting lost and overwhelmed with the ways the laces were swooping and looping around. I tried my best though, and that's what matters!
