I've been spending most of my time drawing for fun of a variety of things. But also enjoying going outdoors with my dog and little brother. We go on walks and just explore around the area because we're still new to it. I don't have pictures of us on the walks but here's one of my dog. But let's focus on this project instead of my dog. Even before this little learning project of mine started, I was attempting to draw thing in perspectives without proper knowledge. Watching the videos from the perspectives class I'm currently taking brought me back to the basics. I've done this before in the past in Dan Allen's class but at this point I somewhat forgot and needed a refresher. First, I started out drawing things I already knew how to do and examining my past work I've done to see how my perspectives are. Already, I could tell a lot was wrong with it. I don't use a horizon line or even a specific point to focus on for the background and just draw. Each object ends up having it's own perspective and makes it all look off. I did use a lot of references though but even with that I didn't have much understanding of perspectives in order to do it right. But along the way I realized there were bigger things I wanted to practice on other than perspectives. I really want to learn how to draw hands properly and in more dynamic/ different positions. A lot of the times when I draw hands they look really off or I'm too lazy to draw all the fingers right. I also lack a lot of details and the hand ends up looking empty. I'm having difficulties in choosing what exactly I want to focus on for improvement or if I should dedicated a few days to different things overall, and at the end I combine all this together to make one big art piece. I could end up showing this off during my senior exit interview.
I might end up changing what I want to learn how to draw possibly? I'm not sure yet but I feel more comfortable learning about how to draw hands.
