That last dolphin is supposed to be looking right at the camera, but I kind of lost it. I'll try again later with some more animals, this is fun.

I did four, to start. I'm not totally convinced this isn't some sort of woo-woo, but what the heck, it's kind of fun.

So I'm about halfway through watching this video for the second time, and I'm still a little confused.
What's a rhythm? Stan's just drawing lines, and I'm not seeing the logic here. What would a not-rhythm line be? What makes some of these lines rhythms and what would make them not?
Somebody please help.
I think I am getting it, and it's only because re-watching the start of the vid he makes clear that this is an abstract method of drawing. Meaning that we don't have a technical/measurable reason for making some of the lines (like the ones of the face), but we make the lines because they imply a shape or feature in a way that makes sense. Like that the front of the head should be a straight line to imply it's flat because that's the front. Or how you make a triangle to imply a nose because that line gives us enough information to see a nose without having to draw more. I guess a rhythm is like, the visible pattern of how body parts flow into each other.
Rhythm is what gives a form movement and energy. A figure without rhythm will look stiff and lifeless.
That's how I understand it.

Before watching demo. Any critique would be cool. Not sure if I'm doing this right.
