When drawing from observation is getting the correct line you observe just pure intuition ? If you are not measuring.
I feel like i have been really overthinking drawing from observation lately.
Are you guys focusing hard on the line you are seeing on your subject and going line by line until your done. Or do you interpret the shape of your subject more and try to copy ?
I hope this made any sense.
I feel like the awnser is that you guys dont really think about it and just pull your line and im overthinking it.

Yes, I use my intuition, I do not think too much when drawing. The good news is - the police will not come even if I make a mistake. :)

Where does a master study begin and just using an art piece you like as reference end?

I think that master study begin when you take a MASTER'S artwork not any picture from the internet.

This is very interesting challenge! I like a lot of masters but for this task I chose two: Hokusai and Albrecht Durer. Hokusai (the first one) I did with fountain pen, both Durer copies - with charcoal pencil.

Hello,
I'm not sure if I'm the only one, but I can't seem to play the video. It loads as "completed" with the blue check with no playback option. Thanks for all that you do!

This is my submission. I used Chinese ink for rhino. I imagined the light coming from the opposite direction. And other two pictures are the same tree, in one line weight based on importance, in other - on the light/shadow. I used fountain pen for the tree. It was still cold outside so I was not able to draw the lines carefully.

Angry flower character - critique please2mo
Hi everybody! This is my illustration I finished today. My concept was about angry flower who doesn't like the insect who is coming and she wants to drive him away.
I used Affinity Photo.
I will be glad to hear critique.

Earlier I used to think that I'm "not allowed" to draw from imagination - especially people or characters. I even had no ideas what to draw. Because it was kind of "forbidden" for me. Thank to this course I understand that I can do it like everybody else and nothing bad happens. :)

Yesterday I did some sketches in a car showroom. It was difficult to draw the sitting man trying to avoid the situation that he notices that, lol.
