Exploring UnconsciousI am inspired by work of Freud, I am sure many of you have experimented in Surreal art. Since i am just at beginning i try to keep a pen paper near my bed and draw what i could remember from my dream. Thats lot of wierd stuff i draw but unconscious is all about that. Can you please share if you have gone down the path of surreal art and what is your process for that?

Please critique. I enjoyed thinking about big shapes first and enveloping it and getting to details later. Pr

Here is my question, if lines is one of the exams that we need to pass what will be your criteria to pass this exam?
Some of criterias I could think:
1. Successfully Imitating lines of artists you are inspired from
2. Completing all the lessons
3. Inventing a new style on your own

Not sure if this will be helpful but i found building a vocabulary for lines important. Here are some of words i am trying to save in memory for lines:
Sharp: A clear, precise line with defined edges.
Soft: A gentle, less defined line that blends smoothly.
Thick: A heavy, bold line that stands out.
Variety: A mix of different line qualities to create interest.
Heavy: A dark, weighty line that adds emphasis.
Crisp: A clean, sharp line without blur.
Atmospheric: A line that suggests depth or mood, often faint or blended.
Confident: A bold, sure stroke with no hesitation.
Tapered: A line that changes thickness gradually.
Fluid: A smooth, continuous line that flows effortlessly.
Broken: A line with intentional gaps for texture or rhythm.
Dynamic: A line full of movement and energy.
Light: A faint, delicate line suggesting softness or distance.
Bold: A dark, prominent line demanding attention.
Hatched: Closely spaced lines used to create shading or texture.
Calligraphic: A line with varying thickness, often expressive or decorative.

Not sure what I could have done about their hands and feet. But it was fun to try light weight on this guy.

I did this exercise with charcoal (first time using charcoal pencil), so I don't think it helped me but this is what I could do.
