Finally done with this drawing. It took so much longer than Stan said it would, especially because I was checking my proportions with the reference at every stage. Speed was my biggest struggle with this, how often should we check our work against the reference

Level 2 Assignment with an Orangutan, all critiques are welcome

Another attempt at the level 2 Exercise after watching Stan's Demo. All critiques are welcome

Here's my first attempt at the level 2 exercise. All critiques are welcome!

Here's my submission for the Level 1 Animal portraits. All critiques are welcome

Here's my first submission for the Level 1 project using the references Stan provided. All critiques are welcome

Here are my Master Studies from Shiyoon Kim, Glen Keane, Stephen Destephano and Steve Lowtwait. I struggled to replicate the confidence seen in the master's strokes because I was also making sure the drawing matched the original work. I know Stan said it is not supposed to be a direct copy, but I find it hard to strike that balance. All critiques are welcome!

Decided to try out combining line weight like Stan demonstrated but with a different light source. I found it hard to decide how I can show that a line is close to the camera without making it look like it's in shadow. All critiques are welcome

Here's my Level 2 Assignment submission, applying the depth and form method after watching Stan's Demo. All critiques are welcome!

Here's my Level 2 Assignment submission, applying the light direction method. All critiques are welcome!

Here's my submission for the level 2 project (Changing the direction of the light source). I did this after watching Stan's Demo on Light Direction. All feedback is welcome!

Here are my submissions for the level 1 project, all done digitally I'm not sure if I did the hierarchy of importance thing right. How do you decide what's important and what's not? All critiques are welcome.

Simplification study, trying to work on designing better shapes with these studies. I found it difficult to simplify my shapes while still keeping the drawing accurate. All critiques are welcome!

This is my second pear after I watched the demo and the critique videos! The values were easier now that I used two different pens (I think it was HB and 2B)

More Hands from Imagination. All critiques are welcome!

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.

Thought I'd like to draw some kind of Seahorse and figured it might be interesting to draw a SeaCalf instead. So had a look at some photos of Seahorses (and Sea Dragons which apparently are different) and decided to make a few sketches of the different types to get an idea of which features I liked and what I could use. Also found some refs for calves and did a bit of a study, also looking for poses that I thought could be good to use as inspiration for the imaginative sketch. The final sketch to be fair doesn't look much different from a Seahorse, lol, so gonna give it another go and try to make it more Cow like. Was fun to do anyways

Here's my submission. I made 2 attempts at the full-page sketch from imagination. I'm not sure If this is what the assignment required, were we supposed to stylise and exaggerate our subject?

I'm not sure if this is what the assignment was asking for exactly, but here's my attempt. I'll be going to attempt the drawing from imagination assignment next. All critiques are welcome!
