Portrait #28 based on a photo found on Pinterest.

Pretty happy with the end product but there are many areas I am looking forward to improving on future works.

Despite the areas of improvement I see I'm still so proud with how far 1-28 has helped me progress.

This was the first portrait I attempted with a. Reference, and for some reason I also thought I would 'finish' it in ink and use (LMAO) whiteout(?!) as "highlights"

Ignoring some of my poor decisions I think I still do like this, sure there are things that I would change now but it's a journey.

Pretty sure this is someone from Les Miserables, but I've never seen it so who knows I just thought they had a unique face.

One of my favorites

A handful more #stilllife exercises. I'm especially fond of the gnome based on a polymer clay gnome my younger sibling made!

Do people post these on this thing? #receiptify #musictaste

Some of the #stilllife practice exercises.
Looking at Terminator lines , proportions, shading and the last one thinking about objects from perspectives other than the one visible.

You still have time, it's never too late, you can start now.
If you’re over 30, quote this with some life advice 🤌🏼

Some of the exercises I used to study fundamental concepts were quick and rough thumbnail panel sketches like these!

These four were studies on 1) process 2) leading lines 3) Horizon lines effects on perspective 4)Methods to achieve hierarchy

🥰 thanks Kim, I try but often get disheartened but always try to get back on the horse whenever I can. It's about balance like everything 🤪
I know someone who is really good at this @intowitchjenn.bsky.social

When I started trying to improve I decided to do it my way. I looked at various syllabus for fundamentals...I combined them into a master list, then looked up exercise ideas to practice.
Then randomized them.
These are some of the first few perspective exercises. I'll circle back one day...

May 2023 is when I intentionally started trying to improve my art.
November 2023 is when I tried to start improving my portraits. As I did have complaints about my head 😂 🏁

It's good to look back at the beginning. These sketches are from that time frame.

Working toward my first collective gallery show in October.
Primarily portraits at the moment though I love drawing anything from landscapes to animals to plants and people and buildings. I love to paint too.

Lunch time 3D sketch of a smokey quartz palm stone, I think art is part of what's keeping me sane these days

A Saturday well spent is D&D, Ocarina of time, Black Clover, and LoL

What did you do?

Saw a job posting for an art society position today, and fully read the entire description knowing 1)I had none of the qualifications and 2) I'm too concerned with my scarcity mindset when it comes to finances.

But my soul likes to day dream.
Jealous of the AU me who chose heart/soul over logic/ego

And for blinding contrast with my portraits that take 6+ hours
My in meeting 10 min no reference sketches are still painful 😂😂 #dontjudgemebymysketches
