    Thank you for this excellent critique and all the other ones you and your TA's have done over the last 1 1/2 years for me! I feel quite a sense of accomplishment completing Lesson 7 which seemed so far away when I started. I felt like I learned a lot more than just the fundamentals of the fundamentals of drawing in this course. The lessons learned here help me in many other areas of life as well.

    Thank you so much for the valuable and detailed feedback! Enclosed is a link to 4 new images, I hope I'm on the right track. One question is how do I draw parts of animals that are close to flat but not flat. The squirrel had a pretty flat tail so I drew it like a leaf construction but that's way too flat lol. Also I wasn't sure how to draw the elephant's large ears so I think they came out 2D.

    Thanks for the great feedback! You made me aware of things I didn't realize such as trying to make everything a 3D form coming out of the base shapes and respecting the base shape profile. I redid the lobster and shrimp demos as well as the ant and beetle. That and a tree hopper are enclosed.

Orconomics by J. Zachary Pike

Orconomics by J. Zachary Pike

This is one of my favourite books. It's a fantasy-comedy romp, and the world that J. Zachary Pike has created honestly takes my breath away. There are laughs at every turn, but the story is not without its heart wrenching moments - some for which I have yet to fully forgive the author.

If you're at all curious about the kinds of nonsense I read, or just need something new to sink your teeth into, this is one I can highly recommend. On top of that, being self-published by an indie author, it's the kind of thing where your individual support can go a long way.

P.S: The audiobook, with narration from Doug Tisdale, is especially good, and elevates the story in ways I can't rightly describe.
