Joseph's shiny new sketchbook

[JosephCow]

here's how the ice bird picture ended up. It was a fun stream i really liked doing it. I actually don't really love this painting, the feedback was that the ice was pretty good, but the background was kinda too dark and murky for snow. sunset/sunrise didn't really read due to lack of long shadows which is a really good point. 




Finished this fall semester today, here's some of my recent drawings. The past three months have been practically entirely focused on modeling form, and I'm actually quite pleased I've figured a lot out. I definitely am nowhere near mastering it but at least I am in a place where I have started to understand some fundamental things and I can improve with practice.
