Hey Danielle! Some of these, like the two middle ones, are starting to get interesting! Take a look at my post above for further compositional tips. It looks like you may be a little hesitant with your drawings (I'm often the same way, I have to snap myself out of it)--next time you do observational drawings, try putting away your eraser and keep your lines loose. If something doesn't feel like it's working, just keep redrawing! Trying a softer medium like charcoal or ink washes would be interesting to use, to see how you focus on form and shadow instead of lines. :)
The technical stuff: Each week you are required to post your weekly sketchbook here--they should be uploaded before class each week. (remember, when you're scanning and posting to the blog, sketches should probably be 72 dpi and in Grayscale or RGB. Finals for printing should be scanned at 300 dpi.)
I encourage you to comment on each other's work and post any other projects or doodles you'd like to share or would like input on--this can include progress on class assignments, experiments, or links of interest you think the class would enjoy. This blog is to encourage you to help each other out, get ideas flowing, and see what everyone is up to! Have fun with it!
I'll be posting something myself each week, so stay tuned!
