Here is my attempt as a level 1 student. Challenging but fun!

Here's my attempt so far. Did the 3 supplied and one additional but plan on doing more. Fun project!

Here is another master study I tried after learning of the work of Sorie Kim on this forum. Really interesting stuff.

This is my study of a Dave Malan drawing. I wasn't familiar with him but seemed to have a strong focus on line work.

First attempt at line weight organization, first based on importance and second based on light/shadow. I tried to vary line thickness but looking at the pics, I think I could have made the differences more pronounced.

Here is my level 1 attempt. Will give level 2 a go tomorrow.

Here are my level 2 attempts

Ended up simplifying the laces to a single C or S with a C eyelet. Like the rhythm that can come from those lines. Kept the snail shell hard with straight I lines and let the snail take the organic S and C.

Here are my level 1 drawings. I, too, fell into the boot lace trap. Will be curious to see how Stan handles that. Will give level 2 a go tomorrow.

My coffee mug. Tried to limit myself to 30min but went 45. Feel like I'm having trouble showing volume. Hopefully will come with practice...

Wanted to try a portrait again after watching Stan's demo but really didn't feel like doing the same one again so pulled this off the internet. Really enjoying the process. I have faith that the product will get there. Currently looks like a cross between Barack Obama and Barney Fife...

Here's my attempt at level 2. Really enjoyed doing it and look forward to doing more and learning how to improve.

Here's my attempt at the pear. Will give the portrait a try tomorrow. Comments always welcome!
