These are challenging and interesting poses. Especially the foreshortening is difficult to get right. Most poses I started with a rough gesture: ovals for ribcage and pelvis, indications for the limbs and an oval for the head as the last part. Only after that I was confident enough for some rhythms. Critique welcome!

I enjoyed this topic but need a lot more practice at it. I always wanted to be able to draw animals in action. This is a good start.

incredible job Stan.

Line Master Class Heinrich Kley dancing elephant and David Malan ladies face. I've never worked with cross hatching before and was surprised at the effect. I can see how different types of lines can make such a difference to our drawings. Totally enjoying this course.

Heya everyone! Guess it's time for master studies! Took time to search for reference but went back to the Watts skull since it has a lot of line weight/type variety I could really learn from! Plus I was feeling bad (to the bone) today :)

Tried light and dark and added some coloured graphite pencil to see how it would look. You can't see much difference really just a hint of colour. I haven't really used them before but I had them and thought I'd give them a try.

is this fine?

Hey party people, attached are the drawing exercises for the level 1 trace and level 2 draw from observation. Eager for some feedback :)

Tried to make a puppy + nietzche + c.g jung. Didn't make my drawings sketchy enough and spent too much time undoing and redrawing lines and I don't think it was a good use of my time. Dog on the right was the final sketch, but I was too tired of this assignment to add any details to make it more 3D. I'll try to remember the instructions better next time.

Tried to highlight the rhino's mass and horn in the first image. On the second I went really heavy on the shadow side
