Zearthus: Your compositions are center-heavy and front view only. Have you thought about placing them further apart, or using the space in between them as a composition element as well? Check out some other composition ideas to test out in the first post, where I put a link to notes taken from that composition book.
Adam: There’s a composition class? Where is it? Now I’m questioning the very meaning of what a composition is!
Lyra: Do you find using recognizable shapes in your composition add or takes away from the studying of composition itself? For example using a skull, or a plastic dinosaur or a toy car etc.? I'm wondering if I should avoid those complex shape and try and to do composition studies using basic shapes like sphere, box, or some kind of pyramid shapes.

This is a rather pale drawing. I was trying to capture the shadow and light shapes in the first one but the pencil I had didn't go all that dark. The second one was done while leaning against an elevated bridge railing in an aviary while trying to be quick about it.... I'm not sure what the first one is, but the second was an attempt at S or creating an entrance composition!
