Thanks for the classmate who uploaded the cat's photo to #14 days challenge#. Sorry I can't remember your name. Your cat photo is so funny, I couldn't help myself drawing a picture for him or her.

First image are pre-studies from Pixar and photo’s, skeletons, then searching for form, character in 2+3. Number 4 is pretty much what I had in mind. But probably only then starts the real search for the design. Done for today though. 😅

The three-in-one-page is mine. The other two are from my daughter. I‘m totally stunned by her ability to capture the proportions although she never really did something like this before

The warming-up exercises. Guess I’ll repeat those before drawing from imagination next time. I used a see -through frame with a six box drawing to help with proportions. The oval is off, because of my standing position it was harder.

A question for level 2 people or those more advanced in perspective; How to draw a box around each boot to find the perspective lines/points - so that you can see through the box(es) they are in? Maybe also for the Van Gogh boots?? 🙏🙏 so much!

Day 14: drawing a crow, straight in ink. Challenge done! :)

Day 14. Still can't simplify very well.

Day 14. Couldn’t choose today, tried a bender (pincers), then a little bowl, which is hard! And then I saw such a great character (face) in an old movie Greyfriars Bobby, so that was fun for this last day of the challenge. Drew it with a black rollerball pen (over graphite and erased that later).

Day 14 already! Oh my dear!

Day 13. First image was an extra on day 12. (Wobbly because of the overhand grip) The next two is from today. I find the pelvis forms so difficult to picture in my mind, hopefully this will improve over time.

Day 12. I saw this cute vid https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1AxMnQzaO58 (surprise at the end) and decided to draw the cover for today.

Day 11. Will do some more, exercising twisting, turning, rhythm to get better gesture and daring to exaggerate the movement.

Day 10. Spent way too much time on drawing the first image from the lovely movie The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel. I threw it away. Love the picture though, maybe another time. I chose to post the third image I already had; playing with pen and ink.

Anyone else feels suspicious about the shoelaces? I thought mmm this is a simplification exercise and those laces look way to complicated :p Dont know if I should feel smart or just lazy :p

Day 9. Took some clay, formed it to something with irregular planes to draw from 3 angles. The photos may differ a little from my view on the forms. The charcoal pencil didn’t work smoothly, so I cleaned up the erased lines digitally.

CAMEL! What is that thing between his front legs?!

Day 8 (from yesterday 😄) After I started Marshall’s Bridgman course on Yt I searched for block figures and drew some. The first 3 are from a ModernDayJames vid.

Day 7. Not content, but - it’s from life and a good exercise.

Day 6. Started the day with Michael Hampton’s (book) 1min gesture drawings examples.

Day 5. Sketched this for 25 min. Every time I’m tempted to work longer on these daily drawings. Don’t think that’s the idea though. So this is it for now.
