Hello! I definitely need to practice interesting shapes, it was more of a struggle than I expected haha

Hello! First attempt was done on 18x24 in. newsprint. the measurement lines were very light, so they're hard to see in the picture. Second picture was done digitally. I wanted to do a few digitally so I could check proportion issues more easily. The final drawing was in a 9x12 sketchbook. I can definitely still see proportion issues (and the face features are pretty funky haha), but I can see improvement after doing the assignment

Some attempts. Definitely need to practice shading with pencil more lol
