My full page of drawing mushrooms. Eclipses seem not that easy to draw while controlling darkness and intersections.

(1st image)My 2nd attempt to draw this pear after watching demo and critique video. I did it on my own, didn't trace what proko did, because I still don't understand the concept of "core shadow". (2nd image)My 1st attempt to draw this pear, I'm sure I got some improvement. Maybe later in this course, I could learn more techniques on how shade cleaner tone.

My first attempt to draw this pear before watching the demo, I have basically zero knowledge of drawing, I tried my best to do it.

You got the most important part -- dividing lights and darks. That's a great place to start, so great job with that. I personally like to start with the lightest value in each group so I can work towards the darker shapes, which looks like how you handled your drawing here. The big light value shape flattens out your pear a bit, maybe adding another value shape as a midtone would help break it up a bit and soften the transition between the light and dark values.

Jsut starting out my journey to be an artist. My goal is to be able to draw or paint realistic animals with traditional media, like colored pencils or watercolor and to sculpt them in 3d software. I'm 28, never have drawn anything in my life before, sometimes I feel I'm too old to do art comparing to those young artists who have already done great pieces, but anyway, I'm doing it, got all my gears set up and taking this awesome course from Proko. I tested my pencils in printer paper pad and tried to draw an apple on my working desk in my drawing pad, my first drawing ever in my life.
