Hello everyone! I just wanted to share a quick thought I had on finding new shapes. This worked especially well whenever I felt stuck or uninspired. All I did was find small nooks in my sketchbook (spaces that resulted between drawings) and I tried to fill those with a design. Most of the time, these empty nooks had such a random shape that the results ended up being quite interesting (like in the example below with a horizontally stretched triangle for a monkey head). I know this idea is nothing revolutionary, but for me, it’s a good one to keep in the back of the mind when doing these exercises.  Also, thanks for the demos! These really help a lot!

Redid my pear again after watching the critiques. I made sure to pay attention to the shadows and make them dark enough and give enough space for the lights to have variation
@jannike794
that looks great!

Well, I didn't think I was going to try Level 2 project. I struggle with fear of failure. But thankfully we have Proko! I have a lot to work on and to improve, but overall I am surprised with the results. I am reading 'The Practicing Stoic' by Farnsworth and central to the theory is that we react to our judgements and opinions not the the things themselves. So today, I am choosing to react not to my self-criticism but to the feeling of accomplishment for attempting Level 2 project. Have a great day!
@jannike794
Love the drawing!! Because you mentioned the "Practicing Stoic" I want to recommend "The Practicing Mind" by Thomas M. Sterner, it really helped me!
