I'm finding these exercises a lot of fun to do, but I didn't think drawing the support rods would be so difficult.

This was fun, as always I have the most difficulty with laying the drawing at the beginning, specially with proportions. After that I have more fun with putting more definition into the drawing and then playing with the shapes and values. It took me way more than 1.5 hr but it was worth it.

Hello Sterling, maybe you remember me maybe not, happy to be here and keep learning from you. I have to work areas: 1. In the corner of the dining room I have a table and a little cart where I do the paintings, I draw in here as well. 2. One wall of the bedroom I do my work as a designer, sometimes I draw in here. I don't have the ideal working space and I can't have a dedicated room for creative endeavours, I work with what I have and I hope in the future this improves. but there's always potential of the possibility and as and exercise I redraw my bedroom as a dedicated space for creative work, digital work (design, drawing and painting) and traditional work where I paint and have my materials; also I put a small table for my espresso machine and two chairs for social and resting. the table for traditional work is on the wall of a big window this helps with illumination.

@Alberto González Of course, I remember you! Regarding having a dedicated space, it's very common to work within a dual purpose space. In college and the years following, I used an art table that I hinged directly to the wall and mounted to the studs. This worked as something I could set flat, at an angle, or completely lay flat and out of the way. So glad to see you here, Alberto!
