I am still beaving away doing an hour's drawing practice every day. I don't honestly think it is getting any easier. The tremor in my hand (brought about by the drugs I have to take daily) is certainly more under control and I am not quite as scared of putting pencil to paper. I am learning to look more and am less afraid of putting in a wrong line. Anyway - these are today's drawings.
That bottom one is GOOD! Your shading's coming on really well.
ReplyDeleteDid you turn the vase upside down and forget about it being a vase? Also you could try negative space drawing which I found helped me no end - draw all the space around the object, forget about the object, and you will be amazed at the results.
ReplyDeleteI like the solo jug very much. It could be criticised for its perspective, but it is a very pleasant shape, would grace any still life.
ReplyDeleteWell done :)

You're feeling the three-D in the objects, and making them more solid. If you combined patches of colour with these shapes, I bet you'd see how effective they could be as paintings, just as they are...
ReplyDeleteI am now taking a drawing class and learning so much!
ReplyDeleteYou are doing great!

use a large piece of lining paper- cheap so not precious...and use your whole arm to draw, not just from your wrist.
ReplyDeleteAnother tip is to have a postcard size hole in a card...and draw what you can see through it, be it part of a spanner, a hand or a view....A4 size.
The advice my two eldest had when they started GNVQ Art....fill two A4 sides in a drawing book every day...and it didn't matter if you were studying photography or textiles....it was practice in seeing and looking co-ordinating eye hand and brain.
Me? I still design pots on my wheel and draw afterwards!!
