Good job. I think you're good to go. Your organic forms are better and so are your arrows. I will point out a couple things to consider so you can improve on these excercises when you do your warmups.

  • Work on your arrowheads. Make sure they don't break the flow. Imagine there's a third line flowing between the other two lines of the arrow. Use these to imagine where the tip of the arrowhead will be.

  • Work on the contour lines. Make sure they sell the illusion of being wrapped around the organic form.

That's all. Keep practicing and you will keep improving.

Next Steps:

Move on to lesson 3.

Add arrows excercise to warmups.

Add organic forms with contour lines to warmups.

The Art of Brom

The Art of Brom

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.
