With a little help from my friend, @mcminnjesse , I have made a little progress.
I followed the same process I had been using for the first two drawings. 1. glance at the reference and then draw 2. look at the reference for one minute and then draw. But the third attempt from memory (rather than just look at the reference for two minutes) was after breaking down the forms (physical and mental effort) and then trying to draw from memory.

I like yours because they’re “real”. No ruler, just you and your memory.
I like these, you “thought outside the blob” and went with unique forms that weren’t too human-like. Good imagination.

This! I wish there were more than 24 hrs in a day. I need to take Marshall’s course. So much info packed into 18 minutes in this video.

I had to keep telling myself the point of this project was to learn one point perspective, not achieve perfection. A lot of wobbly freehand lines (I really do practice straights a lot!), some weirdness with line direction, my pencil going dull at in opportune moments, etc. But I learned one point perspective along the way.

Thank you Stan for explaining why you included rhythms early and the long term benefits. Helpful. I panicked at first at the unknown. Will practice and fail forward ; )

I’m not level 2 yet, but hearing your deductive reasoning as you thought through each “problem” was enlightening. My approach needs to change, think through each part with simplicity. I’m over complicating it and I don’t break it down into digestible parts. My brain needs to slow down and reason through it.

This course went from beginner to advanced real quick. Very frustrating, and the poses are too advanced and now seals make me cry.

I would like to ask a beginner level question about line quality. I have been practicing the tapered line and line weight. I need help applying it to gesture. I don’t have the fancy drawing programs. Just me and a pencil and paper. Stupid question about pencil, if there are programs with different ‘brush packs’ should I be handling the sharpness/lead softness- hardness/lead length of my pencil differently to produce a cleaner line? I feel mine just get messy, and hence I erase and my output isn’t clean. Any and all suggestions welcome.
