Remember that a ballpoint is only acceptable for the first lesson and the box challenge- even then, it’s recommended to switch to a fineliner as soon as you’re able.
This looks good, by the way. Try not to grind, though. There’s 3 pages of the superimposed lines exercise, out of the required 2. It’d have been nice to have some more variety (regarding line lengths) in those first 2, too.
Thank you for feedback! I'll keep your suggestions in mind for my next homework. I did switch to fineliner, as I said, I didn't have any, but I've bought myself some and now I'm itching to go and buy more, along with a bunch of other stuff I'm pretty sure I don't need. :D
I'll try more variety for next assignments
Here we're getting into the subjective - Gerald Brom is one of my favourite artists (and a pretty fantastic novelist!). That said, if I recommended art books just for the beautiful images contained therein, my list of recommendations would be miles long.
The reason this book is close to my heart is because of its introduction, where Brom goes explains in detail just how he went from being an army brat to one of the most highly respected dark fantasy artists in the world today. I believe that one's work is flavoured by their life's experiences, and discovering the roots from which other artists hail can help give one perspective on their own beginnings, and perhaps their eventual destination as well.
