Finnjamin - LOL yes! We still huddle up against it today :D haha thank you ^^!
eleven - I must admit, it feels strange doing gestures digitally! I guess pencil and paper will always feel more natural to me (even though I suck :D) but very true, saving some trees ;)! Thank you!
Izzual - heya, thanks! I totally took your advice - been drawing from life a lot more, it helps with sooooo many things, I will continue to draw from life now! :)
I do not have much to show D:
There were a good 10 more pages of pencil sketches which I've managed to lose, as well as a couple of PS files that were destroyed by a blackout (and my frustrated self - starting files, getting 3/4 through and binning them. I keep telling myself this needs to stop, but nothing happens... mmm.)
sketches before applying perspective, ugh
stuff from life again
hands
feet from life (there were more, but they were soooooooo bad ugh)
sketches
terribad unfinished piece of shii--
couple of perspective studies from Sick's class :) (basic idea)
playing with light
wip sketch from imagination (if I ever finish it... YOU BETTER!)
Although, during last week, I found something pretty interesting about myself as a person.
I work a lot harder when I'm put down.
When someone looks at my work and reminds me I have a lot of work to do.
When I show a family member and what I get in return is a silent nod, or a "yeah it's good, but..."
I become extremely competitive when someone tells me I can't do something, or that I suck at something, or if I'm looked down upon.
Subsequently, I tend to become very lazy/complacent when someone tells me my work looks good.
The stupid thing is, when someone mentions they like my work; personally I still hate it - and yet, hearing feedback like that literally makes me want to do nothing.
The theory not only applies to art, but many facets of life.
I'm glad I've figured this out now, rather than later.
Now, enough venting - back to art.

I'll be back - it's an odyssey, after all
