Tried to gesture draw and its really fun to do and a nice change from the basic drawing course that Im following. Still lot of practice needed on my side but Im quit pleased with this attempt. :-)

This was a fun exercise, not watching out for proportions :-). Never realized the difference it could make and invites to experiment with this.

A bit the strange to notice that the one which I thought would be the most difficult of the tree was the easiest. Certainly not perfect but this was my first try, Life is full of surprises.

This one was more difficult than the penguin. After my 8th attempt I thought its enough for me today, I need to come back to this one later to attempt it an other time again. For now this is whats achieveable for me. Need more practice.

This penguin was pretty difficult for me (picture is the 6th attempt). Not a straight line in it, only curves. Also sketching is more difficult than I thougt. Now I know where to work on.

The csi assigment was pretty fun, but difficult. Constantly needed to correct incorrect proportions and inaccuracies. But you have to stop somewhere. Definitely going to do this more often as an exercise. Now I'm going to watch te demo of this exercis and find out (hopefully) what went wrong.

Before and after watching demo. Its difficult to get the proportions en the gradiants right (and consistent). Need more practice. This is a very usefull exercise.

First exercise and a difficult one. I had a hard time with " shading" with pencil in overhand grip (poor control). I am used to the grip for writing. And when i looked I exaggerated the detail and neglected the bigger shapes. I need to give this exercise another try (or two)
