exercise

A perspective and action exercise.

My friend and I are trying to nail down a tattoo idea for her that involves witchcraft and weight lifting. (Note: the final picture was supposed to be two different ones, but appears to be repeating itself. This happens to me sometimes. Not sure how to fix it.)

Shading Exercise - boxes with three value scale

I haven't uploaded in awhile, simply because I'm not doing much that's - interesting. Just lots of exercises. I did this spontaneous pen sketch of my husband the other day and was pretty pleased.

I've been trying to learn how to use Blender and this was one of the exercises I did to practice what i know

Just drop in the watercolor in different value and mixing of limited palette. It’s very meditating and an excellent watercolor exercise.

Acrylic on Paper. I painted this as an exercise, fully expecting to fail, but walked away with this nifty piece instead. I've recently been growing a lot in my painting ability, and this was a big victory for me.

Black and white, graphite (pencil) drawing.

One of many exercises in asymmetrical symmetry over here. "Sunny's Waves" doodle drawing. 6" x 6" / Micron Pens on 100lb Acid Free Archival Bristol 2 Ply Paper.

An exercise in scribbling with oil pastels and ink. Fun times!

A fun little exercise drawn with black fineliner and colored with colored pencils.

Digital symmetry exercise in square format

An exercise in observation - quick sketch. I was told that if I made a drawing a day for 365 days, that in a year, I might have a couple nice drawings.

An exercise in the art of anguish languish.

Doodling of the Day

Morning play. Watercolor paper tests with random colors. Ink on top to make each into a drawing. It was harder than usual today. Haven't done thise exercise in too long.

This a good brain drawing exercise and it helped me to practice something different aside from actual objects. I recommend giving Miss Betsi a view on Youtube if you want to learn how to do these designs yourself.

Shadow exercise

This was an exercise in taking a photo that was quite dark and foreboding and turning it into a happy looking illustration. I'm slowly getting my head around how to make my work look like illustration instead of "fine art". This is watercolour and colour pencil.

Character project for the Youtube channel, W PODSKOKACH, containing music and movement activities for children in preschool and early school age. Our task was to create a design of a child's figure, referring to the Canva style, in positions adapted to the exercises of the gymnast.

This was an exercise that I think worked out very well and motivated me to keep going.

Exercise in correct proportions. . .

Normally i start w an idea or whim & doodle away trying to capture my thots. On this one i simply scribbled onto a page & then looked hard for shapes, animals, faces & any other unorthodox item. Then i simply added some color. I plan to do more of these mostly as a gr8 exercise for fresh runaway doodles hot off the press!

I'm currently doing exercises from DrawABox. Although the header here is: "The Aspiration is just to fill a page. It's not a product. No one has to see it." I will probably end up posting more of these. This is not the same as the graphic journal, which is more about me, my daily activities, etc.
