Hello!
I did the revised exercises with as much care as I could.
I'm eager to read your comments.
Bye.

Thank you for your reply.
It is incredibly useful in the advice and steps to be taken.
I will re-read and redo the forementioned exercises.
Hey, I really like the pair of opposite textures that you made with the flowy, almost feathery hair and the face.
I recommend that you avoid telling that you made mistakes upfront; that doesn't help "selling" your piece, though I honestly was surprised when I saw the good quality of your work.
Thank you very much for your feedback.
I will continue to practice taking into consideration what I do good and what I can improve.
I really like the metaphor of shape.
I like to hear podcasts, as it feels like I'm working with another people around.
I recommend Draftsmen, hosted by Stan Prokopenko (that Proko) and Marshall Vandruff (another really great art teacher).
Also interesting is Nick Animation Podcast.
Thanks for sharing your work with us!
It takes courage to show your art over the internet with strangers.
You seem to enjoy expressing emotional states with your drawings, that's a good thing.
Keep at it!
I understand.
Sometimes I just make quick scribbly lines all over the place, with no meaning, just for the joy of seeing the pencil making marks, like a little child.
It reminds me of "automatic drawing" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MJYGFwGhHnA&ab_channel=Proko
It's really great for a mouse!
It looks great, don't worry about shading too much, that's the icing of the cake, as long as your picture is clear, all good.
This recommendation is really just for those of you who've reached lesson 6 and onwards.
I haven't found the actual brand you buy to matter much, so you may want to shop around. This one is a "master" template, which will give you a broad range of ellipse degrees and sizes (this one ranges between 0.25 inches and 1.5 inches), and is a good place to start. You may end up finding that this range limits the kinds of ellipses you draw, forcing you to work within those bounds, but it may still be worth it as full sets of ellipse guides can run you quite a bit more, simply due to the sizes and degrees that need to be covered.
No matter which brand of ellipse guide you decide to pick up, make sure they have little markings for the minor axes.
