Lesson 6: Applying Construction to Everyday Objects
8:52 PM, Saturday April 3rd 2021
So, even though I got the pace of the lesson more towards the end, it really made me struggle a lot. I think this is the hardest drawing practice I've ever done and I'm just happy I was able to push through.
After the first construction (the bottle) I propose myself to just do my best on the rest of the lesson since I knew I could do better than that, and to be honest I'm proud to say that this is the best I got. I struggle a lot with being confident during the constructions, in some of them my hand wouldn't stop shaking through the whole 1:30/2 hours construction- I'm not saying this to get off the hook with the line quality I managed to messed up in almost every construction (I started using french curves at one point), I just think that every time I think I'm getting more comfortable with making mistakes, I realize that it will take longer for me to accept them and that I should keep an eye on falling on the trap of being afraid of them. Also, proportions were also pretty tough.
As always, thanks a lot to whoever is taking some of their time to give this lesson a critique- I cannot express enough all that this course has gave me in terms of knowledge, help and being able to feel like I'm part of a community!
