Very difficult! Somehow, eyeballing is easier and gives better results than a structured exercise like this one.
Big fun of Marco Bucci!!! Just got his new course.
Here are today's drawings: gesture and big shapes in purple and a more refined drawing in black on top. 5x10" and 1x20"
I’m not a digital artist but today I decided to have fun with Procreate. I tried to color it but then I decided not to. I preferred to keep it as a sketch. I had a lot of fun doing something completely different from what I usually do. I’m aware of all the mistakes, but, still, that was fun!!!

Difficult challenge: so many details! I tried to keep it simple and gestural.
I had a to of fun (big fan of Vikings)!
20 minutes head block-ins. The first one is...the first drawing of the day and it shows. I'm actually very happy with the other two, considering my level and where I'm at at drawing people.

I had a lot of fun drawing these mermaids! The first three are 15 minutes drawings and the last one took about 25 minutes.

I didn't time myself: I wanted to focus on proportions and quality of the line. I used overhand grip with charcoal pencil on newspaper.

Fun assignment!
I also tried to draw from imagination without looking for reference pictures for the different parts of the sea lion. There are anatomical mistakes... Anyways, the inspiration was the sea lions' show at SeaWorld.

I decided to draw this one before watching Stan's video. So, I only used measurements for the "box" containing the head. After watching the video, I know I shouldn't have...
I used the pencil to judge a few angles (should have or not?) and then I eyeballed everything else. I had an hard time placing the nose and in fact it's off, and consequently the mouth.
I had to go over my drawing with a softer pencil to get a good picture and to transfer it to Procreate.

I drew alongside Stan but I got most of the proportions off. Strange thing, when I look at the drawing, it doesn’t look that off or bad. That tells a lot about my ability to see! When I double-checked the proportions in Procreate, I used the length of the face (hairline to chin) as my fixed points.

Here is my assignment

For this assignment I chose Mauro Belfiore, Eliza Ivanova, and an another Italian illustrator named Bruno Brindisi, who has been one of the illustrators of the Italian comic book called Dylan Dog, “The detective of nightmares”. I used to read it in the 90s (yeah, I’m old) and I’m really attached to this character and his adventures, gory, dark, and yet full of humor. In the drawing with the mummy, I decided not to spend too much time copying exactly all the bandages and chose to just get the gesture of them. In the second drawing by Brindisi, Dylan Dog is wearing the clothes of the other character Brindisi has worked a lot on, Tex Willer, from another Italian comic book series. I chose to draw this one because it’s more like a sketch than a finished drawing.

I don't feel like I'm a L2 student but I gave it a try. I never draw from imagination so this one was particularly difficult.
It's a sloth doing yoga...
I'm also posting the L1 assignment.

The boots laces were the most difficult part. I'm very curious to see Stan's solution. The vertebrae were difficult too.

Much harder than I thought! I filled up many pages and got slightly better but I still need a lot of practice. I found out that a sunflower-like drawing is an helpful exercise too. 💪🏼

The hardest part was using only 5 values. In general, I have an hard simplifying and grouping the bigger planes of the head. But that was the point of this assignment, after all! :)
The Dalí-Bot takes care of your pet, tries its best to help at home, and makes only Dalí-like art. It's not wise to contradict a Dalí-Bot as it is not fully sane, by design.
The past two years have been even more surreal than this bot...
