Hi all, this is my attempt prior to watching the demo. My lines are really light, and I'll attempt again with darker lines.

First time messing around with Procreate. Hmmm... I mean ... It's not the same as paper but it's kinda fun. I guess? All the paint brushes are fun and the colors are fun. I guess practicing digitally would help with non digital work and vice versa. Anyway I'm trying to continue to experiment with ellipses and just going where my imagination goes.

They say that lightning doesn't strike the same place twice. Well, the same can be said for my lines. Any tips?

Tip #1- go easy on yourself. I don't think your lines are bad. I like that you are experimenting with different sizes of ellipses too. I'm no drawing teacher but I'll give you a couple of things that have helped me. Whatever speed you are drawing these, slow it down a notch or two. Take a page and work on "ghosting" ellipses. I personally work on ghosting circles too. Use your whole arm and just work on ghosting those shapes with just a single pencil stroke. That practice will help you smooth out your ellipses or any line/shape in general. Keep practicing and don't stop practicing. You're doing great! 👍

Mushrooms and other strange designs. I'm going to keep experimenting with ellipses. Attaching them together, building them on top of one another etc. etc. etc. Whatever my mind comes up with really.

Hi all. I have been practicing mushrooms for the last 4 days. I started to figure out that I can put any shape in the universe on top of that first ellipse so I started experimenting. FUN warmup. I decided I will draw mushrooms every day until the end of time. That'll be about a Trillion mushrooms. I'll improve while.doing so, and I'll be an expert at drawing mushrooms. It's a win-win. 🙂

I think what you meant to say was that you are making AWESOME progress on the portrait front! She and I share the same birthday. I knew who it was right away too. Nice job and I dig the colors as well! Keep going don't ever stop ever!!! No matter what!!!

Hi all, here is my 3rd attempt at the pear. I feel like I got the bottom lighter shadow better this time. I really tried to make all the lines connect at a sharp angle. I feel like when I grab the 6B, it softens those sharp lines. Where the stem attaches to the pear is tricky. I want to continue to I prove it. Any critique would be welcomed. Thanks!
