I think I need a lot more practice. My second try does look better than the first one, but man that nose, and all the angels in this picture makes it one of the more difficult projects I've tried so far.
I cannot wait to see the critique video, to learn more and see where I can improve.

I do not see the reference photo in the download. I am excited to start this drawing project.

I choose Dave Malan. I think there is beauty in Simplicity, I love the simple yet elegant style of his line drawings.
I am wondering, if the homework is to copy an artist is it okay to take some liberties? I wanted to add eye lashes to the right eye, even though Dave Malan did not.

I have decided to try another of Dave Malan's drawings. This one took 4 tries to get it to kind of look like it. I still have some mistakes that I can see, especially in the neck.
I feel like for a lot of us level 1 artists this was hard, but we have to try and try again to succeed. I am a firm believer that we learn through play, so draw a lot until the drawing gets better.

More Kley study (this is my 3rd day). Frst I roughly sketched with 2H pencil, then inked with Micron 0.3 & 0.5. Can't get the same feel of the pen strokes as his.

I've learned today that if I use a color pencil that I cannot erase easily that I do better with being more free and relaxed, I know it is weird but it worked for me. I am excited to see where the is going to go from here.

Funny that Stan said even if you get the curves in the wrong spot it still looks like boots. When my family saw the boots before they saw the reference picture, they thought it was amazing boots😂

I cannot wait for the demonstration video. But I wanted to share my picture anyway even though there is so many things wrong with both of them and I might have a bold spot from pulling my hair out to try the shoe laces on the boots.😉😂
I thought the boots were going to be easier than the slug, but man was I wrong.

I have realized that I do better drawing from a photo than a real object from observation. I still have a lot to learn here.
I am also not sure how much detail to add to these line drawings. Is my drawings too simple and child like?

I must say fruit are boring😂. But I guess we have to learn the boring pictures before we can do the exciting and fun pictures.
