Lesson 3: Applying Construction to Plants
5:06 AM, Sunday September 6th 2020
Please forgive the atrocious leaves exercise, I was coming back after a couple weeks off dealing with carpal tunnel and still trying get my spatial awareness and and line-quality back online. I really enjoyed Lesson 3, I felt it finally allowed me to apply construction to personal, off-drawabox sketches and digital stuff with some confidence. Especially the "flow-line" and how it works like the line of action in a gesture, that really helped me work on constructing crappy mannequins to draw/paint over.
The best part of this lesson was how curious and observant it made me of the plantlife in my neighborhood. About half of the flowers were ones I found growing wild, and I started to see just how stunning the world around us -- vines climbing through a fence, a tree stretching over the road, flowers springing up along the sidewalk. So many beautiful things to see and learn from.
Anyways, thanks ahead of time for the critique!
