These are circles of my warmup! It was fun to draw a lot of circles, but the works are a little bit scary...

This is for Level 2 assignment.

I realized how difficult it is to maintain both "accuracy" and "simplicity in shape."

Would love any critique! These are a lot of fun to do! Its an easy assignment to fall back on when not feeling very creative. References included. I kept going with the De La Torre studies after watching Stan's demo. I did the Old Hun in his entirety as well as a Viking study. Found it hard to work with graphite so I wanted to try with ink which worked much better. Main takeaways were: 1. Separate your lines. Spacing the lines can really alter the perceived value. - I could've improved this in the Hun and did a better job with it with the Vikings. 2. Use lines that go with (and imply) the underlying form. This was a reoccurring theme in both De La Torre's and Watts's works. - I could've thought about this more in the Hun.

I tried master study from Glen Keane.

This is my practice of line weight.

I tried the level one (trace), carefully looking at the photo of the rhino.

I chose beaver for my second trial after demo!

I tried warmups!

I tried a sketch from imagination, and it took a little bit longer time than sketching from observation. I think that sketching from an imagination take a lot of brain effort!
