Lilia- Art School Journey

design.liliarae 2020-08-05 21:45:01 UTC #1

Hello! my name is Lilia and I am currently an apparel design student in college, however, due to health concerns I am taking a gap year in my program. I have always loved drawing and considered it my main passion so I wanted to take this year as an opportunity to explore it further and try my hand at making it a career. My first step was to sign up for ArtSchool! I just finished the first term and plan on documenting my journey.

I invite any and all critique, don't be afraid to rip it apart!
Thank you all so much, I'm excited to be in the community!

Welcome Lilia! Looks like you already have some impressive skills. Your 1-point perspective exercise is on point.
Sketch lines need some work to be cleaner, but I have the same issue
Can't wait to see your progress.

Thank you so, so much! I really appreciate the feedback! Yeah I definitely need to work on my line quality haha, I'm so used to paper and pencil! I'm super excited to keep working!

Thank you so much! That's exciting, I'm probably going to do another one tonight myself! If you post it, I'd love to check it out!

Hi Lilia!! Needless to say that your works are just amazing, the first figure drawing made me really surprised It's obvious that you're not a beginner.

For the 1 point perspective I really like the mood but it's really difficult to see the details, I had to get closer to the screen to see something, maybe it's a problem form my computer but I don't know hahah If you see like the thumbnail of it I can see just the basic surface. But from what I see it's an amazing work

Hey!
Thank you so much, I really appreciate the support!
Yeah I noticed that too after I posted it, I definitely need to turn up the brightness and contrast a bit

Working on some more figures!

Hey @design.liliarae

Welcome to the course and the community!

As a lot of people said already, you have impressive skills! Keep up the awesome job! Loved your 1-point perspective assignment (feels like a room in Mars!) and your grid reference drawing looks fantastic! (Took me ages to get that one right).

Hope to see you sharing more around here

Cheers,

Your figure drawings are always awesome, I have to learn from you hahaah
And I wanted to say that now I saw your 1 point perspective project on my ipad and It's more clear and bright than on my computer, I don't know why hahah now that I see better the details it's really amazing, I rectify my previous comment

That is some really nice figure drawing. Your cylinders look very accurate as well. I think you will have a lot of fun with the anatomy section of the course. I see your outline got a lot better as well. Keep up the good work!

lip3chi 2020-08-07 14:46:29 UTC #16

I really like how you paint

design.liliarae 2020-08-08 04:31:03 UTC #17

@dangras-almeida Thank you so much! I really appreciate your kind words and warm welcome! I can't wait to continue working!

@chiara.arcidiaco Thank you so much! Figure drawings are my absolute favorite thing so I do them obsessively

@WeirdOwl Thank you! I'm glad you think the cylinders are ok, when I was doing them I wasn't sure if I was happy with them. And yay, I tried to work on improving my line quality, I still have a ways to go though

@lip3chi Thank you so much!

2- point perspective study

I think I need to work more on 2-point, I'm still not super comfortable with it so let me know if you guys see anything I could improve on! Thank you

Another 1-point prospective study. This one gave me some trouble with the vaulted roof and off-center window haha, I'm not sure how successful it was
Also, I'm trying to add some clutter/ details... I haven't decided on the placement so let me know what you guys think of the rough out!
