I used the blue plum line for measure. My lines are messy because I kept erasing and redrawing. The blotch at lower left corner was eating accident...blue berries.

Master Study... unknown artist (Left image) which I downloaded from google. I wanted to imitate his/her pencil stroke. I used 2B pencil.

Master Studies (Leonardo Da Vinci) -- practice on line confidence and consistency. After gazing at my own drawing awhile, I noticed that I haven't really understood the varying weight of the lines to indicate darker shadows areas. I just drew across without emphasizing dark side of the shade-- not creating the 3D volume.

I find that one of my biggest problem is impatience...

Yury, those are really detailed drawings. May I ask how long did it take for you to draw each of these two sketches? Very nice drawings.

Before watching demo. Certainly drawing shoes for the first time was challenging.

Hi Patrycja... I like the dark shadings behind the shoe laces and the holes (even though I don't think that was the requirement in this exercise). It really pops the shoe laces out . May I ask how much time did you put into the boots drawing? Nice job.

Hello, here is my first try. Please, I would be appreciated for any advice or critique!

hi Temoki, I like the fact that your lines look clean and directionally disciplined, especially at the top of the apple which shows volume. The apple picture itself has too much surrounding light scatter resulting in not so much distinguishing shades on the apple.

I didn't quite capture the gesture of the leaning back...

I think I unconsciously drew the fingers shorter when I ran out of space below. And the thumb looks weird...a little careless.

I messed up the head profile. Don't look right.
