I have been drawing since I was 5 years
old. My dream at age 45 is to be able to make drawings, animations, and portraits full of energy and emotion.

Good morning! Here is my second attempt at the CSI project: Boots exercise
Any feedback is welcomed.

Hi! I felt that drawing a simple pear would be too boring, so I came up with "The Pear of the Beholder". I combined an old Stan's eye tutorial with this one. Hope my pear won't be a nightmare fuel for you. Stay motivated!
I agree. Its a good place to start. Just starting is a win. This looks professional

This is now my third attempt at this drawing exercise. I think I'm starting to understand simplifying. Challenging..yet fun to do. Let me know what you think.
I think you captured the form and proportions of the pear very well. But the drop shadow keeps throwing me of. I think it goes too far to the top and suggests a more warped perspective. Adjusting the angle of the shadow might place it more convincingly into the scene.

I tried this 3 times. The first pic is before the demo. I took a good minute away from drawing daily. I went ahead and immediately tried a post demo but because of the more complex shapes I had a rough time. This morning with fresh eyes I tried once more after re-watching the demo again. Much happier with my shape finds and values. Shading seems to have improved as well.
Proportions are still not where I want them to be, but I am satisfied with this progress

This is my is my first attempt at the simplified drawing before watching the demo. I noticed right away that I have a tendency to get caught up in the details causing me to be frustrated with my drawings early. Thanks for your feedback 🙂

I'm gonna be honest... I really don't wanna do this 😭
Please do. I feel like the same way a lot of days but push past that apprehension and start the creative process. Trust yourself and trust the process..have a good day

First attempt at sketching these images before watching the tutorial.
There are lighter, more confident areas and darker, re-worked areas where I had to keep correcting my proportions. I had to remind myself to trust my eyes and not to make assumptions when drawing the hand (by far the most challenging for me). This led to substantial corrections.
The VR girl was really enjoyable to sketch. I made her torso disproportionately short compared to her legs. This occurred mainly because I didn't know where to start with the sketch, then referenced the position of the hanging screen (which could easily have been altered), rather than the legs, when drawing the torso.
Conclusion........that was a ridiculous decision and I don't know what I was thinking! Will reference body proportions to other body proportions rather than random objects in the future! 🤣
Congratulations on completing this exercise. What type of artist are you aspiring to be?

This orange [pre-demo] turned out messy, and shading was a pain in the ass, but I really like the result, especially when I step farther away from the drawing. Have a nice day!
