I love the line work by Bernie Wrigntson, the way he varies between hatching that follow the form and hatching that follows the rhythm/gesture. How he uses thin lines in the light and indicate texture, and in the shadows he uses think lines/shapes in a more abstract way.

ASSIGNMENTS

Pick a master drawing you find amazing and study it, focusing on the artist's use of lines. A big part of this project is about taking some time exploring different artists to figure out what you like.

Select artists you admire, do multiple small studies, and focus on studying the lines. Ignore any shading.

Don’t forget to share your drawings! Include the original master drawing and make sure to credit the artist.

Deadline for submissions to be included in the video critique is May 11th 2023.

Here's my first try to the assignment along with some of the masters I choose for this topic, to give any out lookers recommendations. I'm noticing how both artist use medium lines to keep the design simple. With the straw hat in particular I notice how Oda leaves some empty space to give some breathing room to the center of the head, and Toriyama probably uses some worn out inking tool for details like bruises, face wrinkles and dirt. Am I right in my analysis? You think I'm way off? What feedback do you have?
