LESSON NOTES

Establish a Daily Drawing Routine

Challenge yourself to draw every day. Try to get into the routine of drawing daily. Set aside a specific time, and put it in your calendar. If you're already drawing every day, push yourself a bit further. Draw a bit longer or try something new. However, don't go overboard. Set a manageable goal, especially since we'll have another project coming up later.

Daily Drawing Exercise

Each day, fill up one page with linear drawings from life. You can go outside and draw when inspiration hits, or find something at home to draw. Take a photo of your object if you like.

Steps for Your Drawing

  1. Observe your subject for one minute without drawing. Imagine it as a drawing.
  2. Begin drawing by sketching a few lines.
  3. Look, think, and execute. Repeat this process until you're done.

Each drawing can take 5 to 30 minutes, but don't worry about timing them.

#1 Did another still life like the pear drawing, but will probably have to stick to simpler projects in the future cause this took a bit, haha

@persistencehuntert
day 3, day 4, day 2 the phones contour line was not where I started. The shape in space overwhelmed my skills. I remembered contour line and some order of lines on day three and four but, I feel like I am learning how to be cerebral and present. Also, more details popped out to me today.i swear one day you will all discern the essence of the aspergilus on that phone, i swear it!

Day 10: Koichi Haimawari from My Hero Academia

Day 1 (hosta) and 3 (camel). Day 2 also happened. With the hosta, I went into it trying to simplify, but then the texture/shapes on the leaves were too fun. Also, I was drawing live and lost the lighting. For the camel, I tried to think about the CSI assignment and using tapered lines. That one took way longer than it should have and I’m not super happy with it.

Tried something different tonight and limited time massively to force myself to sketch more Vs clean up and polish. This is usually something I'd then layer a cleaner version on top etc.
