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.

Great summation of info on the study. I think it really helps to engage as many areas of the brain as possible (the drawing portion, the writing portion, etc.) to help with the learning process. <3

Hi guys, really great assignment, though I struggled finding line-art that has no shading. I figured that hatching is ok-ish and tried my hand at it. From left to right: Anders Zorn, Some artist at Grafit-Studio, some unknown french Baroque artists, John Gyudo, Michael Hampton

I am currently on vacation so I couldn't trace but drew from ref. Slightly skewed it. Lit from left and from right.

my practice pages. I also added a 5 minute figure drawing to keep it more interesting :)

Day ... I don't know :D These aren't from one day, but done over the last weeks. I work mostly digitally but since starting this course, I feel less anxious when drawing traditionally. The helmet took longer than 30 minutes... hope it is okay to post it, since I used the concept of starting with 5 values and it worked so well!

Hello! I decided to try my hand at baby goats. I don't draw animals often so it was a bit of a challenge.

Those are really nice. I like the one that is jumping the most. Giving it a cranium makes it look really solid. <3

I got a little too precious with the boots once I tried to simplify the laces.

Really love the snail. That pattern on its neck is just the best. <3

Hey guys, I tried my hand at the level 2 assignment. My daughter wanted to get a dumbo - octopus to color it, so I settled on it. I attached a clean lineart out of habbit, but the assignment probably asked more for something in the lines of the page with the 2 designs. Hope you like it.

Hi I would write more. Sorry I don’t know much how to write in English. I am from Cambodia. Thanks

Hey man, really great idea to get your own image. BUT! It is quite overexposed on the light-side. The camera tried to get the information in the shadow and some information in the light-side was lost. So in order to make this at least a bit easier, I would suggest to use not 2 but 3 values for the shadow and only 2 for the lights. And to have a big gap on the value scale between the shadow-value-group and the light-value-group helps to keep them nicely seperated. Did a digital overpaint to illustrate my points. Hope it helps. :)

I really liked this assignment. I drew the camel and the snail, to have a mix of level 1 and 2.

Day 1 - studies of a coconut crab from reference. No I don't have a pet coconut crab, unfortunately.

Hey everyone, great to see everybody's work. I used pear 3, since it wasn't the one Proko did in the video. Really tough exercise! I am not used to simplifying and it is more difficult than I thought. Great fun though :)

You could increase the darkness of the shadow values to make them a bit more connected. Right now the shadow value is quite close to the dark halftone.

Tried the pear. I think the simplification went well. Not so sure on the shading, I was working with 2H HB 2B and 4B pencils but I think it came out flat and lacks the roundedness the pear shows in the reference images.

Hi Mark, I think it is great, that you did all 3. You can go back and look at Proko's pear if you feel lost with this. I see that you didn't emphasise the core-shadow and the dark mid-tone in the 2nd and 3rd pear and you didn't give the 1st pear a dark midtone either. Doing this will help with the roundedness.

Hi. I used the reference pic of pear 1.

really nice drawing! I like how you kept the values seperate without outline the shapes.

Hey guys, I did an hour of studying the arm-bones, overlaying them on 5 images. This is really hard for me and it showed me, how little I know about the arm-anatomy. Also thinking in 3D space is challanging. Anyways, I would love to get some feedback on these. Cheers, Flo

Trying to get more information out of these gestures, by keeping it as simple as I can. I tend to start detailing and fiddling with it, when my mind is wandering.

Hey guys, I did 20 poses 45sec and 20 poses 60 sec. I used the hard round brush in PS to train my decision-making-ability. I kinda fell back into my pattern of tracing the outline on the first ones, but for some I could shake it off. Still feels a bit like a step back from last time... :D C n C very welcome.
