Hi! This is my second attempt. I challenged myself to limit the drawing to just 5 shapes. It was really hard, but I think I did a good job, and I'm happy with the results. The colored versions are my way of breaking down the drawing into separate figures. At the same time, I wanted to study line quality (I know a chicken isn’t the best example, haha). I hope you like it! Any feedback is appreciated. ❤️

Hi ! Due to the fact that these exercises stress me out a lot, for the first attempt I didn’t set any limits for myself. In future attempts, I would like to limit the number of shapes. I started with a chicken and ended with a hippo, and I think it shows, haha. All feedback is appreciated <3

Hello! These are lovely drawings. I think if you challenge yourself to find a small amount of simple shapes, it will be very helpful to you. Think of it in terms of constructing a house. You don't immediately start designing the fancy ceiling trim. You start with the framing. Everything else you add is supported by the framing. Try to find a simple shape that supports the overall form and build from there. Oftentimes we can simplify that shape into a circle, triangle, or square. After we have designed the base shapes, then we can go in an add details. Hope this helps :)

Nice linework! The thin lines are light and delicate. I think thicker lines could be bolder. Here’s a draw over to show you what I mean. You want to be able to differentiate thin and thick lines, even from a distance. This gives your drawing more purpose. Good stuff!

Before demo. I don't think this is my time to draw things from my imagination, but it was really fun experience. All feedback is appreciated <3

Before demo. With the girl and the penguin, I was really stressed out, and I gave up drawing for a month. With Spider-hand, I tried to relax and not think about the end result. All feedback is appreciated <3

Hey there, I think these came out great. While you really captured the accuracy of the original image for all of them, I especially like the looseness of your sketch for the hand drawing. I think diving into it with a more relaxed approach was definitely a good call. Not only does it bring more flexibility to your sketching process, but it also makes it less intimidating and easier to play around with your drawing, which is useful when you sketch for fun and to bring your own ideas to life. It's important to have a balance in your routine of both art that will help you improve in skill and also art that is simply meant for fun and keeps you motivated to continue making art. I hope this is useful-- keep going, you got this! :)

Hi Monika! You have a very strong sense of form. I this digital or pen? Nice work!

First attempts before demo! It was really hard for me not to focus on the details, but only on the form ;-; I'm quite happy with the shoes, but this snail isn't the best.
