Should have added some contour lines to the snail shell. Could not bring myself to spend time on the boot laces but had fun with the contours. Struggled with how to get the camel head looking accurate.

I think it is a good picture. I am hoping through regular practice and this class I can get better a proportions and angles.

Day 1. One of the reasons I wanted to take this class is to get some motivation to create something, anything really. The last few years left me wanting to draw, but not having any motivation or ideas of what to draw. Two weeks seems like an enormous task at the moment, so hopefully I'll be able to keep it up.

I agree with you on the motivation. I tried learning on my own and it was tough. Having the class at least points me in a direction. Like your drawing too. Really nice on the shading.

Day 02: obviously my mouse but the proportions are wrong :(
Tomorrow, I will clearly try to work on a picture found on the web. The objects around me are boring...

I'm really liking this challenge.
Lessons learned on day 2:
1. Draw to fill the whole page.
2. Do the lay in first to get the overall proportions correct.
3. Wheels are hard, but mushroom exercises seem to help : )
4. Just a few lines can convey expression. Amazing! And surprising how hard it is to recreate those lines to convey the same expression.

Day 1
My lines need some work and especially getting this roof correct hasn't worked out very well.

Looks like you mind was telling you the top was flat and wide so the lines are far apart. The phots says they are much closer together. I like that you made the inside lines on the sides lighter than the outside.

Whoops, I forgot to check if there was an upload! Quick draw something! But I've already drawn a lot today. Draw something anyway!
Forgot to put something under my page so the graphite became all grainy. The other pages are the daily drills from Monday to today.
On a more serious tone, tomorrow I'll be posting what I usually do on a normal day of practice. I've been getting the feeling that what I've been doing hasn't been helping me grow and I'd like some feedback if possible.
1yr
I guess my main feedback would be that better photos of your work would be helpful. The pen on the right looks pretty good though from a proportion view.

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?
1yr
Honestly I felt like the main objective of the challenge was to set a habit while also practicing lines. I don't think detail is the issue just making a bunch of lines.

Day 2: My son eating a waffle. Proportions were way off when I checked back to the photo though…

Started this drawing from a Moebius piece yesterday before seeing the challenge. I'll be going to jazz club tonight for today's drawing challenge.

Got a new fat 5mm pencil with red lead and wanted to try it. The proportions are off on the cup but I was trying to go fast.
