Here are my attempts for the value scale exercise for both levels. I started with the black square for both scales and worked my way up. For the level 1 scale, I realized in my first pass I was lightened my values too quickly, which left my last few squares completely white. I kept that in mind when I attempted the blindfolded scale. Although I had an easier time with the blindfolded scale, I see that I was too dark for my first few squares.

These are my attempts for the level 2 exercise. I need a lot more practice with memorizing human figures. I really struggled imagining the more complex poses in my mind. I will be revisiting this exercise many more times in order to master it.

Here are my attempts after watching Stan's demo. Although my perspective isn't completely accurate, I feel much more confident memorizing and imagining 3-dimensional objects in my mind.

Here are some sketches of a few of the objects as well as some figures I drew in my live figure drawing class. I was unable to take pictures of the models, but they were all my attempt at rotating the figure and drawing from memory together. The tools were a combination of drawing from memory as well as memory and rotation.

Nicely done! I love the line quality and the rhythms in the figures

These are my attempts for the torso exercise. I had some difficulty with this one, but I am satisfied with the result. Any feedback is appreciated.

Stefan! These are great! I don't know if it's intentional or not but there's some line weight changes in places that feel intentional really strong communication of movement and some good life to them. 10, 11, and 13 are my favorites of these.

I got way too crazy with this attempt. I tried to really push the perspective with the tree trunks, but it just made the treehouse look like it's tipping over, which was not my intention. However, I still learned a lot from this assignment.

Here is my attempt at a cottage (top), a motel (right), and a treehouse (bottom). I think I was a little too gestural for my first time; the extreme perspective threw me off when I tried to add finer details.

Looks like the houses are dancing 🕺

Some more sea creatures. I tend to stiffen up when I draw darker lines which cause my edges to lose their gesture. I still need to practice imagining the 3D shape before I apply my cross contours, but overall I am happy with the result.

I tiny Gingerroot dreaming about two other Gingerroots going for a high-five.

I'm having fun with this assignment.

Looks great! The cross contours are spot on and the overlapping shapes give your lobster drawing a lot of dimension.
