Here is my homework so far (dip pen on Bristol board). First just contours then with hatching. I think for cleaner hatching using a dip pen I need to go bigger because it blots too much. (These are about 5x7.) And I think I need more sleep because my hand didn’t feel too steady.

@Erin-Cortese Thanks Erin! This course has been really fun because of the emphasis on practice vs. product (so far
)—It’s been surprisingly stress-free to let the playful side of my brain do its thing while the other side of my brain is observing what my hand is doing. -
The one thing that I REALLY hate about this is that it ACTUALLY WORKS and I am getting better so I really DO NEED TO PRACTICE if I want to get better. Ugh. My impatient self wants instant gratification with little sacrifice. I would much rather assign these exercises to my students than to do them myself.
(All of this is said MOSTLY tongue in cheek)

Some exercises from today!
-
Form line work with some hand control practice. Pentel brush pen.
-
I just did a few minutes ....will keep working on this exercise this week. Hoping my pentel brush shows up soon.
-
One of these days I'll settle on a hatching method that works for me. Today is not that day

I know, right? I wish i could better from the theory side of things alone, but nope!

Hey all,
So tonight I had an awkward kind of realization while watching YouTube. It was a video about how this girls art work improved over the years and how for many years her work stayed the same and never really improved and one day her teacher told her with out applying your self to the basics and making a dedication your not going to improve and then it showed her work progressing over the years and getting better. And even though i have heard it 1000 times it really made sense and I thought of this post. I though about watching the videos in the class and looking at your guys work and I thought about it. I’ve been breezing through the videos with out doing much practice only doing what I wanted thinking I knew how to do this. Well I understood it in concept but not in application it made sense but I really had no clue. So I sat down and did three straight pages of blobs rewatched the form videos and by page three I was barely getting it.
So here is the end of today at page 3 of blobs and here is to the rest of the week practicing blobs and hopefully grasping this concept that I thought I understood
feeling a bit ashamed and I guess smacking my self a bit cause I’m only hurting my self by not taking the advice and doing the basics first!

I did the thing! I a good cat
I tried variations on tones using the pentel brushpen (not the pocket brushpen the regular ones) I really enjoyed doing the drybrush technique
