That drawing reminds of that King of the Hill where Bobby protected Joseph from that Bull by distracting him by being a clown.

>Keys to drawing - Project 1 C
>Make a pair of drawings of a green pepper. In the first drawing, create a mental image of the pepper and draw it as accurately as possible from that. Do the first drawing from memory without the pepper being present. Supply whatever details you can recall without having looked at it for some time. In the second drawing, place an actual pepper in front of you and draw it as accurately as you can while observing it. Use line and some tone (shading) for added realism. In the second drawing, try “drawing blind” at least three or four times. Include at least two restatements.
>Use any drawing medium and allow yourself at least forty minutes for the two drawings. Make the drawing life size or larger.
I do not have a pepper so I drew a teapot. Top is imagination, bottom is observation. It's still hard for me to see the 2D shapes of real life, and I couldn't handle the shading/texture/reflections of a metallic object. But stuff like the lid or the bottom half of the teapot are much more accurate in the lower drawing, so even for somewhat geometric shapes imagination/memory can be lacking

>Keys to drawing - Project 1 - D — Eyes
>Make a drawing of your own eyes as they are reflected in a mirror. In doing so, keep your head turned to a three-quarter view (halfway between a front view and profile). Draw as accurately as possible only the areas of the eyes, eyebrows, and the bridge of your nose. Be sure you are always drawing what you see rather than what you know. Use a 2B or an HB pencil and keep the point sharp.
>Work primarily in line with some added tone (shading) to indicate the lights and darks you see. Allow yourself at least twenty minutes. Try drawing blind at least three or four times and include at least two restatements.
I think the goal of this exercise was "individualization", meaning to draw a pair of eyes that is recognizable as someone's, and doesn't just look abstract. I'm afraid I failed at that. The proportions aren't quite right either, the left glass/eye being much smaller. I'm just starting out though, so I'm not too disappointed, if anything I'm still surprised and pleased that my drawings look like anything at all

Thank you for the encouragement. I'll try to be somewhat consistent with progress through the book and post my results here

i'm not going to break the streak.
>>178
nah you are overthinking it, there are 2 goals, draw accurately and blind drawing (i.e. focus more on the subject than watching your drawing). you did a good job.

Personally, i thought he was wearing a plague doctor mask.
>>168
Woah, I really love how this looks.
Reminds of the look of old flash animations with thick chunky lines.
Did you draw it in flash?

that was a messy doodle the intention was a diva queen bee, couldn't find a good pose, then I tried a motorcycle rider but it was getting too messy, so I ended up doing a mosquito but I can see the plague doctor thingy.

>Keys to drawing - Project 1 - E — Tinted Glass
>Select a jar or bottle made of tinted glass (e.g., a soda or beer bottle). Place it on its side turned at an angle in front of you (about a three-quarter view). Draw it as accurately as you can giving special attention to the shapes you see. Draw major shapes first, then secondary shapes, and include the many reflection-shapes in the glass. If the bottle has a label, draw some of the letter shapes. Use a pencil (HB, B, or 2B) and keep the point sharp. Work primarily in line with some added tone to indicate the lights and darks you see. Try drawing blind at least three or four times. Have two or more restatements. Allow at least twenty minutes for the drawing, but don't be concerned if it takes longer. It only means you are being diligent about finding shapes. Work life-size or larger.
Bottles have interesting reflections. Anyway, I'm going on a trip, so sadly I won't be able to keep posting in the next week

Great, I skipped a few days and now I'm in jail.

That reminds me of my cat when I have the door open. He sleeps on my bed when he doesn't want to deal with the other cat. He seems so peaceful and is great cat.
>>204
looks so fluffy and bushy although maybe that skirt is a tad too big?
>>207
i see no changes, perhaps... the cat is fatter?
>>208

>Keys to drawing - Project 1 - F — Mechanical Objects
>Make a drawing of a complicated mechanical object — an egg beater, a sewing machine, a typewriter, or a non-electric rotary pencil sharpener. Use a pencil (2B or HB) and keep the point sharp. Employ “focusing” in your drawing: Select one or two main areas and develop them in detail, treating the remainder of the drawing as simple contours and shapes. Look at the subject more than at the drawing. Search out the major and secondary shapes. (Squinting may be helpful here.) Try drawing blind at least three or four times as you work. Do not erase, but have two or more restatements in your drawing. Allow at least one-half hour. Work larger than life-size.
In the end, the lamp was a bit too simple to leave any details out, so I didn't do much "focusing". I'm pretty happy with the drawing however, because at first I was really struggling. I'm afraid I won't be able to keep with a daily schedule, but this thread got me to draw a bunch which is something I had wanted to do for a while

Anon I'm really impressed you got good eyes for values, shapes and depth. Keep going you are doing a great job.

Another eye, because I'm feeling quirky

It reminds me of how I imagine myself when I am trying to focus on something.
