Day 17; I probably should’ve used a bigger brush. 🤔

Thanks for the encouraging, positive words. Yeah, I have a tendency to focus on the negative, being too critical of myself. ☺️
I suppose so. I always kinda had the fear of going into actual 3D space and screwing up, not being able to get it for some reason. Instead of a line/contour approach. Also when it came to working from imagination, postponing learning perspective, other constructive drawing methods. And my art, how I could express myself just got stuck at the same level. Constantly hitting a wall, because of it.
Just got to be more oke with feeling uncomfortable etc.

Day 16; These are from the Instructional sketchbook by Juliette Aristides. It had some examples of Vilppu’s box drawings. I didn’t know if I could show the reference with it.
I have been feeling a bit frustrated with figure drawing lately. I have been drawing mostly by measuring, contours for a decade and I’m not sure if I can make the switch to drawing more from volumes. I think in the end it can be more enjoyable than constantly having to measure, copy. But the results I get with it now is a bit discouraging.
Going to be drawing over volumes on top of references I think.

Day 15; I should probably retire crayons for these kind of things.

Cool. I like how you just used your wall for it. 😋 The patchiness is because of the wall texture? Maybe you could’ve put a couple of extra papers underneath it.

Day 12; Practiced a bit digitally..

[Marjolein P]

The bean bag exercises seem interesting, where is it from? Might do some of those..

Day 11; The proportions aren’t the best. Ended up spending too much time on it, wasn’t my intention.

[Marjolein P]

Day 10; It started to annoy me that I drew my short timed gestures pretty large and not getting any real shapes, definition in them with the 1 or 2 min poses. So I just tried to restrict myself, see which sizes would still be workable for me. They’re looking kinda funny, but oh well. I’ve been watching more videos today, so not a lot of actual drawing.
