I drew a very simple frontface viewed from a low angle. I added the sketch before I drew the facial features, but after I marked out the support lines, for those who are interested in the Loomis method.
Imagine no more.
Serena in yet another Stark party.
I wanted to do something new recently! So I drew some stuff I found on Chommang's Pinterest page! :D
Super proud of these tbh! ^^
I'm learning to draw. I'm as all over the place as ever so here's a list of study activities I want to focus on at this moment in time! In no particular order.
Drawing along with chommang's videos. I love his art style!
DrawABox level 1 for cubes spheres etc
Proko videos for anatomy or basics or whatever
My friend's drawing exercises. Just as an example of what I can do to improve.
Drawing videos by Japanese artists! Watch, watch, watch. I can learn how to draw and pick up some Japanese at the same time so it's a good way to stay engaged.
Following along 30-day figure sketch
Tracing. Line drawings or real-life references only. Always doing structure first so as to actually learn something. Provided I take care not to pick up bad habits, it's a nice low-energy activity. I imagine it's going to feel satisfying to just be mindless and draw.
You can always switch it up with cozy cute line art or buildings and landscape type references. Or clothing even, or fantasy things, or the art style of some animated series I like. Just have fun!

2022-06-08 Girl drawing- Mostly Blind Contour vs Contour
From June 8, 2022. a mostly blind contour drawing & mostly straight-up contour drawing of this photo from chommang_drawings‘s “Sketching Reference” Pinterest board https://www.pinterest.co.kr/pin/569986896599083467/ . (rest of his board, if you’re interested: https://www.pinterest.co.kr/chommang_drawing/sketching-reference_chommang/ )
LEFT: ~3/4ths Blind Contour. ~3:24-3:30pm
RIGHT: ~1/4ths Blind Contour - “Croquis” drawing (like Chommang). 3:31-4:14pm
MINI JOURNAL
[On the contour drawing] TBH, I gave up after
I drew her upper body too big,
I drew her face & hands too wrong,
+ Face itself looks good, but not too much like the original reference.
I realized I was struggle more w/ the head & hands than w/ the rest of the body.
SELF CRITIQUES:
+ 1/4ths blind contour: you capture the facial features pretty accurately; pretty good observational skills there
- the position of each feature needs work
Practice drawing faces more (croquis)
Re-develop drawing hands (croquis & simple structure)
**Subpoint to 1&2: Sketch guidelines in pencil/erasable lead 1st
*Additional approach: observational learning & cartooning/simplification (boxes)/triangles
