Did it once, realized I did it wrong, so I did it again. That’s what I get for setting up my materials while watching the video instead of just watching… lesson learned. This is definitely getting added to warm ups along with line control.

I probably went a little too hard on the grid-making, but it was fun to reacquaint myself with the tools! This was great practice in working in stages! I feel like I could have/should have applied myself more in the optical illusion part of the assignment… may go back and do something more challenging.

My goals for this course: - To take my art seriously and to learn a crucial skill that will elevate my ability to create. - To develop a consistent study/practice routine that allow me to successfully plan and follow through on future projects. - To improve my spatial awareness and observation skills to better analyze what I am looking at in real life. - To eventually apply this knowledge to figure drawing and portraits. - To impress myself with the progress I’ve made this year. Below are some of my favorites from: - James Gurney - John Harris - Gustave Doré - Giovanni Battista Piranesi - Moebius - Thomas Cole
