Zombie's Book of Sketches
#49
Hey, thanks for dropping by on my sketchbook! Now on to your art!

I have to agree that the blind contour sketches you did a while ago are a really strong work. It looks amazing! The lines there are really loose and thin, in contrast with your usual lines which look much more forced. When you draw, try not to press too hard on your paper, or shape your lines over and over. What I do what helps for this, is to work with ballpoint (or ink, that works too). You can try it as well, use it when you doodle or are drawing gestures. It forces you to construct with as little lines as possible, every line definite, and makes you really think how to use your lines.

It's good you started working on construction, I see improvement! You might want to do more value studies. Try lots of monochrome studies, maybe just simple objects such as sphere, egg, cube... Just to understand volume. And how shape influences light, sometimes i see parts of drawings are flat while other parts are really nice and voluminous.

Keep it up!
