This is my first try using a drawing by Kathe Kolwitz. I had some problems trying to translate all the shading to lines. I love her drawings so will try some more

You can tell from all the erasure marks i am still too concerned with getting it “right” which gets in the way of simplifying. Still need to loosen up
Good job. Yes, it’s hard to keep it simple especially when we are starting out and we could get overwhelmed by all the details we see. Do your best to avoid the short hairy lines & Try to use your whole arm to create longer lines. Take a good look at your image, analyze it for a minute and try to observe how you can simplify the overall shape of the object into the basic straights, s & c curves. Then try to translate that onto the paper.
Try warming up first by filling a page of just lines so you can get more comfortable controlling those csi lines & using the whole arm.
