Hard work + Determination = Growth

[Alexey Savchuk]

My wrist have been bothering me from time to time (cause it was injured in the past) but since post #81 it's got really bad, I gave it a rest last week, but it's still hurting when i draw, and i figure out why (because I squeeze pencil and press on it too hard trying to get from HB, 9B results, which automatically applying in my digital drawing and painting)
Recently I've been working on healing my wrist and eliminating this bad habit that i developed over the years, by drawing softly and trying different pencil hold also drawing from shoulder to reduce tension in the wrist. It is so uncomfortable, feels like I'm starting all over again... But anyway...
I made this Value finder for traditional drawings (I printed it, crop it, laminated, crop it again and now using to match values)
Feel free to use


This version for digital (helps to generalize (simplify) values while studying)
Feel free to use
