My first joint assignment (technically it's the second image)
I didn't put much effort into getting accurate proportions and the angles are not completely accurate.
Apart from that...
What can be improved?
Any feedback is much appreciated ๐

Is the assignment to draw the parts (as simple forms) in the same perspective as in the image or do we draw each of them in several different perspectives?

Both (daughter and myself) our pears 01
I have been doodling for several hours today. Exploring and thinking visually.
Well Proko was right my scratching isn't pretty sketches...
But the hours flew by...
And it was meditative๐

Hi there! Please let me know if there are anything incorrect with my assignment submission.
Would love to know specifically if cylinders 1, 6, 7, 8, 14 and 18 in assignment 2 are correctly drawn and are still considered a 1-point perspective. Thanks!

Not at all am I a great artist but that's why I want to learn! Here is my attempt at one of the reference photos :D
1yr
I am not a great artist (yet) either.
However it is impression that Proko and many other great artists focus on structure among other fundamentals as very important.
So copying a reference's contours accurately isn't as useful as understanding and practicing the subjects structure.
Meaning breaking down the subjects into its basic volumes with primitive shapes (spheres, cubes, cylinders)
Instead of drawing the contours of a portrait... Understand and practice drawing the Loomis head and asaros head on top of that (to understand the planes of the head) then match subject proportions on top of that structure.
Learning to draw primitive volumes and their manipulations (squashing, pulling and doing boolean operations on them

) is far more useful than copying contours, even if there is some benefits from doing contour drawings.
At least that is my take on it๐

I will go through the course with my 12 year old daughter (and the little one who is 7 will see that practice with daddy will make her skyrocket which will encourage her) . I want to keep improving as well as help my daughters (both of them) fuel their love of drawing by teaching them that practice will pay off and point them to the proper foundation ๐.
We are looking forward to start๐.
