This exercise was very fun and challenging, as it allowed me to test my skills. I usually work more with curves than with straight lines (and often feel that my drawings lack structure), which is why this method made the process easier. I started with a sketch on A5, then another on A4, where I added faces and characters, which made the work a bit more complicated, but also helped me identify my challenges. I thought about reinterpreting "The Garden of Earthly Delights" (Bosch) with this technique, but I didn’t have time to do it. Finally, I made another drawing on brown paper, and painting both drawings was a challenge as I tried to maintain the volumes and shapes, but I enjoyed the process in the end.

The Blob Approach to Form made some things easier and others more difficult for me. To begin with, I drew a few blobs, then tried to trap them in boxes. Afterward, I tried to understand the shape of a character I had previously painted in watercolor. I find it difficult to understand the direction and shape of the ears, as they are twisted. Then I drew three blobs, turned them into characters, and tried to understand their shape by drawing them in another position. There are still question marks, but I trust I will be able to solve them later.

Hello, for this assignment I started with a matchbox, something very simple that would help me understand my frequent mistakes. Then I moved on to a ceramic house and finally to a mouse, which was not easy at all. While making them, I watched the following video, The Blob Approach, and tried to apply that method to the mouse.
