Untimed study
Day 146: 29th April, 2025
5 and 10 min ones
Asked for help
Spent a couple hours shading some spheres. It was surprisingly fun, although I think this assignment would be good to space out over a couple of days. By the 5 minute sphere I felt like I could shade a sphere with my eyes closed.
The untimed drawing ended up being around 55 minutes. The spheres got progressively smaller from there 😂
I had a difficult time separating the core shadow value from the occlusion shadow value enough.
All of them look perfect! Reducing the size helped you achieve a similar finish in the 5 min one as the others.

I'm too busy today to do anything special for it. Maybe that's kind of the point. There isn't any fanfare that comes with showing up--just the steady progress.
About five minute sketches. I may have spent a little more, but not much.

15 min value study
This is awesome, you seem to use minimal brushstrokes and captured the essential shapes. Is this just using hard round brush?
This is very nice. And for a 15-minute study, impressive. If this is digital, are you working with a predetermined range of values or just eyeballing it as you go?

Doing some fully made up stuff today. I feel like I’m having trouble bringing the whole set of skills together. But it eventually has to work from imagination so have to practice that too.
As fully made up stuff, these are extraordinarily awesome! Nice value composition on this. Your notan studies are paying off.
Nice studies! I am digging this new aesthetic of your gesture studies where you map the shadow shapes.

Untimed. Not too happy with it, but that's the way it goes sometimes.
Yeah, indeed. We all have bad days. While there seems to be some proportion issues, I really like the uniform pen pressure you have maintained throughout the piece. The shading is smooth and the forms are well defined. I can feel the softness of the hair and differentiate it from the harder creases and folds of her shirt.
