Daily Drawing With Timer Challenge
1yr
Gannon Beck
I enjoyed the habit of drawing everyday during the 12 Days of Proko. The timer tool is great and there are lots of professional photos to work from. I took one day off from it and got right back on it. Now the habit is a fixture in my daily routine. I've been posting the images in the two week challenge thread in the Drawing Fundamentals Course, but since a.) this will be a longer habit than two weeks and b.) not everyone on Proko is enrolled in that course, I'm starting a thread here. Anyone inclined, feel free to join in. Use the timer and whatever photos you have packs for, or are freely available. Here are a few two minute sketches from me--mostly from the Viking Volume 2 Pack. 22nd Day of Proko and counting.

412th Day of Proko and counting. Untimed this morning. I went back and forth between these as washes dried.

Been hectic and feeling a bit unwell so I kinda gave up midway with today's 1 minute session. But am keeping tabs and everyone's been doing good work!

Beautiful! Great squash and stretch on the upper right gesture. Also good use of straights against curves throughout.

I really like the eyes on your quick portraits! I struggle to establish a quick gesture of an eye.

Another set of 1s and a 5.

Need to do more 5s, def felt the time crunch trying to get those details in.

Day 54: 27th Jan, 2025 5 min poses from comics
Gannon Beck
Very cool. These are also good to study foreshortening and overlapping forms.
William Montalvo
This is pretty smart if you want to be doing comics art and superhero fights.

Melanie Scearce
Really enjoy seeing these watercolor sketches!
Jyayasi (*Jay-o-she*)
Good work! The last one is so perfect!
William Montalvo
Random practice. Probably should be working on pages but really wanted to free sketch a bit. I feel like it's important to do some of these where I kind of complete the figure just to see what I need to practice more.
Jyayasi (*Jay-o-she*)
Your faces have so much character! Lovely!
William Montalvo
Set 13 of these 1 minute ones.

1min-5min gestures
Jyayasi (*Jay-o-she*)
These have a really nice flow! Very dynamic!
Gannon Beck
Nicely done. I can see you're starting to get more flowing lines which is helping you find the rhythms of the figure. You're making great progress!

409th Day of Proko and counting. Untimed sketches.
Jyayasi (*Jay-o-she*)
You have definitely made a remarkable progress with handling watercolors. I can see that you are layering the washes..this effect is really attractive to look at!
Dedee Anderson Ganda
2 min boxes forms
Jyayasi (*Jay-o-she*)
Cool! Great way to study forms!
William Montalvo
10 from ref, 10 sword bois from imagination.
Jyayasi (*Jay-o-she*)
You are very articulate in your figures from imagination and it is great practice! Do you imagine a different position from the reference or you totally invent your figures without looking at any reference at all?
Dedee Anderson Ganda
nice leg shapes on those sword bois and their poses are very engaged
Joseph Osley
Just some attempts. Sorry I’ve been so absent here. Real life has been time consuming. You’re all making great progress and I love seeing everyone’s work here. All the best!
Jyayasi (*Jay-o-she*)
Amazing line work and shape design on these! May be you are absent some days but whenever you do post here, you always present a wholesome study session with tons of figures and I absolutely love looking at your work!
Dedee Anderson Ganda
You have nice lines tapering on these gestures! Also take your time, I think through absence, important part is to maintain our enthusiasm with art
Gannon Beck
You're always commenting on the hips and legs on my figures, but whatever you were seeing in mine that you were trying to achieve, I think you've done it. Absolutely glorious.
Jyayasi (*Jay-o-she*)

Solid work! I admire how you are approaching your studies. You are being consistent and it’s paying off. I’m excited to see where your studies will lead you.

Good work! Your most successful figures are the ones where you are paying close attention to asymmetry.

Nice balance of gesture and structure in all the poses!
