Choose as you like from this list:

Improvisational Exercises - to rehearse fearless processReveries: Limit 3–10 minutes. Use a timer. OK to do them poorly.Preconceived: Envision ideas, draw them without stopping to think.Responsive: Generate abstractions and envision imagery within them.Gesture Studies: Draw 1–3 minute responses to favorite Kley images.Seek character impulses (emotions) and sensations (weight, movement, etc)

Analytical Studies - to develop your anatomy, form and design skillsIn response to Kley, create stick figures, simple-shape cartoons, and form manikins.On his drawings, seek anatomical landmarks and identify flesh/muscle masses.

Finished Images - to apply this month’s lessons to your artworkCreate 1–12 finished images influenced in any way by Kley.

Here is a study that I did from a Heinrich Kley image. I know it’s a copy, but I gotta’ start somewhere! Right? My goal is to be able to picture something in my imagination and bring it to life on paper. Critiques welcome!

So here are my submissions for the pre-meeting assignments given. I’ve not yet included a finished drawing. I’m still new to drawing (I’m currently a level 1 student in Stan’s drawing basics course), but I thought I’d give it a try just the same. The Kley drawing I used for the gesture and analytical exercises was “Die Schleppe” (included here for reference). I also included two reverie drawings: a dog jumping onto a table and a horse rearing. Thanks! :)
