Week 1 - 10 x 5min + 10 x 1min I did it all on sketch paper with graphite pencil and increased contrast digitally. 1 min exercise was quite challenging, since i never do 1 mins. Enjoyed 5 min gestures more tbh :)

Here's my work for this week. :)

Nice!

This was fun! :) I enjoyed both research and drawing part of it. I created a redrawing of Sandro Del Prete on first page, by analysing it first. On second page i copied some random illusions i've found. I did everything freehand, because it is part of the fun, when drawing traditionally imo. I know rendering is not the point here, but i could not resist the urge :) I think i started to understand these isometric optical illusions after this exercise. I had never given any thought about this subject before, tbh.

That's rad! Excited to see all these cool examples being pumped out. I foolishly forgot to buy a T-square, so I gotta hit up the store tomorrow before I can do my own experiments. But these were just too cool not to say something.
@lieseldraws
These are cool examples. It's cooler that you copied them free-hand :) Great job!

These isometric drawings are coming out so cool! This is so good! I love these optical illusions.

I chose drawings/paintings from Marc-Antoine Mathieu, Charles-Louis Clérisseau ( i have to admit, i discovered this name checking other students posts here ) and Joseph Mallord William Turner, even though he is not necessarily known with his mastery in perspective. Coming to art from photography background, i like crazy distortions you get in ultrawide angle shots @12-18 mm range. Shapes around the corners of the frame get distorted so that they naturally lead the eyes into the frame. I would like to apply this to my drawings, where it makes sense. I would like to be able to draw anything from any angle and perspective, so that i can translate my imagination into drawings without any technical issues:) I also like using 3d. F.e. blocking out in 3d, then continueing to concept in 2d, and back to 3d and so on. I think even this type of workflow requires a solid understanding of perspective. Eagerly waiting for lessons to be released, and very happy to be taking this class :) P.S. : Ive been watching all episodes of draftsmen more than 5 times by now while drawing, and still taking new notes, when watching. Those podcast helps keeping me motivated.

Just drew along. I think i am more used to drawing the whole mass. Many times i found myself drawing the stylized bones much shorter than they should be.

Hi Michael, first of all i am happy taking this course by the artist and teacher i admire. I think some lines are a bit wonky on my assignment. Would be great to hear your quick feedback, if you have the time.
Michael Hampton
Those are wonky!? Dear lord lol. They look damn near perfect.
