Hello, I am Renee. I started ART school about a week ago. I began drawing again a few months ago, after a long time that I quit. Now coming back to it I am ready to learn the fundamentals and I am hoping to improve. Currently art is a hobby for me, but I do take it seriously and perhaps someday it might be more than a hobby. I'm hoping that I can get some feedback while I go through the course and keep track of my progress here! I am really busy, since I am in university, but I will do my best to keep on top of assignments! I look forward to progressing with everyone :smile:

I've started going through the assignments term 1 assignments and watching the course videos, attached is the ones I have done so far. I mainly use procreate, so the Photoshop ones were difficult since I haven't used it much, and I had to do the photo editing with a mouse. I found it very helpful to actually learn Photoshop functions besides some of the bare basics. But most of my drawing will be done in procreate. So far I have done a little of each of the topics. Any feedback will always be greatly appreciated. I will probably go through the assignments again to make them better. `

Nice job, Renee -- I'm new, too, and I hope that my first exercises turn out as well as yours =)

Hi Renee,
welcome to ArtSchool! Great that you posted so much already and I noticed that we have the exact same dream house! XD Love it. My house is in Iceland on water though. :wink:

I have been really busy recently, but I finally have some time for a little bit! I was able to finish the one point perspective assignment. This was really difficult for me since I have never tried to put a room into perspective. My room, which I was using as reference is also very crammed since 3 of live there. I tried to add a fantasy twist, which is why I made the windows and roof more arc like. I was thinking that it maybe could be the room of a few mages who are attending school? Any feedback is much appreciated :smiley:

I love your 2 point perspective assignment here. Looks like wizards and witches live in this room and there's quite a lot to discover.
I think the doorway isn't quite in perspective though. The arch reaches too far down on the left side and the straight line doesn't seem to be parallel to the horizon line.
Also the carpet seems to be tilted too much towards the viewer in my opinion.

Other than that it looks really cool! :smiley:

I hope the feedback is okay.

Very well thought out room. I like the window designs and how many details you put into it. To add to Indra's recommendations above, I'd say check the ceiling beams. Right now they look like they got rotated, especially the central one.

I don't have a lot to add since IndrawnArt and WeirdOwl covered the first things I noticed, the only other thing that kind of stood out to me is that if the floor boards are actually the same size (as each other) the ones in the middle should look wider, aside from that, it might have been intentional, but a lot of the furniture seems to be kind of twisted, like the closer chair's back and the front of the seat is out of perspective. You did a great job giving the room a fantasy-vibe, keep up the great work!

Thank you all for the feedback! I really appreciate it :smile: I'll make sure to keep it in mind for future things! I will keep working on it!
I also have kept going on the figure drawing and these are my draw overs with the cylinders. Do the cylinders look to be in perspective? I find it hard to tell the perspective of limbs.

I have done the proportions and the first figure drawing. In the past I would only draw very simplified bodies, and stylized faces, so I am lacking in a bit of anatomical knowledge. The figure drawing was still a lot of fun, and I kept it to 1 hour so that I wouldn't over focus on smaller details. I will also do more in the future. Any feedback would be great!
