added comment inDemo - Simple Animal Portraits - Level 2
I think I pushed my designes to far to the simple shape I choose. I'll try again keeping it closer to the animal.

I love all the different styles you tried out! It's definitely good practice to try opposite approaches like you did, like one more realistic and another more simplified/stylized, or more angular vs more curved. Keep it up! :)

Week 2: For the chessboard I used a ruller. In my first attemt the lines were going so far off it was really messy. I struggled but felt happy becouse it came out way batter in second attempt.
The grandfather clock I did the drawings from a different angle than the fefferences I found or mixed different references together to make it more my own. I have convergence issues... but keep on drawing :-)

Week 1: I know I struggle with perspective. I'll try these exercises again later. It is a fun way to get better.

This is a fun exercise. I struggled with getting the feet in the correct position. Something is wrong... can someone help me with a more correct postion of the feet?
Your drawings before and after the demo are really different. You made a good improvement ! keep up the good work :-)
With your #1 drawing I like the way you connect the head to the body at the back. In the front (the right side of the animal) it has a bit of a snowman feel. The chin and head have very similar curves.
overall i really like your designs with a lot of personality.

I tried to think of a story or emotion that goos with the photo and push the drawings to tell the story.
Very cool! I like the 4th one most, the one that says: “Stop - don’t go any further!”

This was fun. In the begining I had an issue with being a slave to the reference but as I went I started to play around with the animals a bit more. Still needs work but I'm starting to understand the process.
I LOVE your work. It looks fresh and clean. The only thing that came to my mind trying them myself is that you make some of them really symmetrical. The ears are left and right the same. (pig, koala, lama) It could be more interesting if you look for some differences.
But as I said it looks really good. It is inspiring and made me try them aswell.

Hello everyone,
I am a bit a bit slow, so I did only one Master study so far. I chose a portrait by David Malan. I did it several times but, in my opinion, I am still not even close to the original.
Please give me your comments, it is always really helpful.
Cheers
I think you did a good job.
What strikes me about your drawing is that your line weight is about the same everywhere. In the original drawing, there is a marked difference in how hard the pencil was pressed. You can see this well with the eyebrows. There you see an overflow from soft lines to hard back to soft.
Keep up the good work !
