This assignment was difficult ! I chose Charlottes Web, the chapter where the goose shows Wilbur how to escape his pen

I chose the two minute one to finish, though I like the 30 second one (I like it enough that I didn’t even want to shade it lol)

15 minutes is really great, too @Mandy Valin ! A bit of Javier Bardem from No Country for Old Men? Great light and shading in that one.
Its really funny how the third one is looking right at us, and then looks away again on the next drawing. He is also more happy with life it seems!

HAHAH that was a lot of fun, obviously a sense of scale abandoned me when time started to press
and a person quickly changed to a completely different individual, but still, it is a cool task to work on)
I've decided to change materials from time to time to find something ) it didn’t quite work out, but brought a lot of smiles)
As far as interesting goes though - curiously my 8 minute drawing is more accurate than 15 or 30, at some point, I’ve changed his chin and carried the wrong one with me till the end
on the bright side - right eye stays consistent!!👀😂
Though I chose 4min one to add values and form back a bit via the use of calque) - I like the feel of brush and if I wasn’t in a hurry - pretty sure I wouldn’t butcher negative spaces as bad)
Good day and smiles to anyone who reads it.. if someone does 😅
I love the 30 second one, he has a ton of character- ha can’t fit it on the page! It has great confident strokes

I chose a scene from the movie Sleepy Hollow. Done in Procreate (I thought it would be faster but I’m still a beginner at digital painting so it took longer than a lot longer than using real paints)

This is definitely a habit I need get into my workflow. Too often I develop one solution and do with it rather than slowing down a little and exploring options.

Watercolors (using up a tube of gray I don’t use much so no blacks here). I do think the mood and messaging changes. To me, the first one (based on original image) has a lot of tension and sense of something bad about to happen. The other two I think that sense is downplayed or even disappears when the figure in the doorway is portrayed in white, I can read a sense of anticipation, or even hope in the figure in the foreground

It's wild how that changes the psychology of the scene. That first watercolor paintings- chef's kiss. Wonderful edges and control @Mandy Valin

Tried doing this first in charcoal, and decided to do it again digitally with Procreate and it was a lot easier to read. It was a fun assignment that definitely had me struggling to not slip into muscle memory as far as value goes, so I was kept engaged the whole time.

First sketch is my current multi purpose room used for drawing and painting, dance and yoga, with a recliner for reading and napping. There are two walls of built in shelves that hold an assortment of materials and supplies, fabric, yarn, canvases and frames, in addition to a variety of physical therapy equipment. The shelves are pretty packed but the rest of the room is very spacious
The second sketch is the room redesigned for dance and yoga, physical therapy and weights.

Nice, @Mandy Valin . We just cleared out our garage and turned it into a gym. We still have to use if for studio and hope to treat the floor with a new surface, as well as address the lighting.
