My attempt to focusing on edges. This was fun! Had some problems with smudging the tracing paper with my hand over and over though.

Squinting! 😵‍💫

Tried desperately to not get drawn into shading and trying to make “a pretty picture”. 😅. This was very hard and took forever. Very good exercise.

Learned a lesson the hard way. After completing the grid drawing the first time, something felt wrong. But no the lines match the grid. Trust the grid. Until I realised that my canvas did not have the same proportions as the reference. 41x33 cm instead of 12x16” re did it and it was much easier. Attaching failed attemp here also. 😅

First step! I absolutely love the attitude and approach in this course so far. 🎨

Not part of the assignment, but I was doing some quick sketch practise in oils and found that the recent work on value composition really helped. I started to think about the different areas of value more intently. Thanks for great lessons. 🫶

I took my creativity muscles to the gym but they are still weak. I did the first drawing before watching the demo, but even afterwards I managed to draw only four thumbnails from the second photo. Thumbnails on the A4 page, my palm for scale and of course absolutely not for the attention :-D

Did some attempts from life when out drinking and drawing with friends.
