Decided to keep this one simple and fill in the shapes instead of layering more beneath them

Early days on a new mandala-like shape drawing on 14"x17" paper. A technique I sometimes use for drawings like this is to use pencil, compass, and ruler to get some lines down. Then I freehand over the pencil lines with pen, which gives it more of an organic look. Once I have the empty shapes down, it'll be time to fill *inside* the shapes, connecting the interior parts at the edges for neighboring shapes, which gives the illusion of continuity (and depth) behind the dividing lines. (There's also the option to do the reverse at this point, in which the shapes are left empty inside and the opposite space is filled in; if you search through my drawings you'll see some like this. But more often than not, I prefer the former method.)

I keep this little notepad and a pen or two by my keyboard while I work. Short breaks to let the mind wander are good. By the end of the workday, it also means I have another new drawing to share. Like this one.

Filled in the shapes from the last face-practice drawing. Needs more practice before upgrading to larger paper. Small notepad w/ 0.1 and 0.8 copic multiliners

Some shapes scattered around other shapes inside shapes while letting my mind wander on the most nothing I can think of. Same small notepad I've been drawing in the past week or so
