Hello everyone!
My name is Jordan and I'm from Arkansas. I want to be able to have a career in art and I am very excited to get going in the ART School course! My goal is to be the very best artist that I can be and I look forward to being able to work everyone!

Hi Jordan, welcome to the forums! I'm excited to see your progress and hope to grow along side you! :smile:

Here are some of the assignments that I've done so far! I have been going through the nude drawing video and trying to practice drawing simple skeletons over reference photos and decent enough cylinders. Any kind of feedback is very much appreciated : )

Those cylinder studies look great! The only feedback I can give on them is to take a few extra seconds to make them cleaner, as I think that would help improve the accuracy and line control long term!

Good job, Keep it up ^-^

Thank you Sasha wood! : ) I'll keep that in mind as I continue to practice!

These look really great and I'm just started with the nude figure drawing so I haven't got to the cylinder part yet. Great Job, can't wait to see more of your practice on these :+1:

Hey everyone! I haven't been on here for almost a month but I'm back to being on the grind!
I basically did a re-review of everything leading up to the proportion section of the nude drawing video and have completed the assignment. I think the legs are what bother me the most about this but I would appreciate any kind of feedback!

Loving these looking great! I think the issue with the female is that her feet may be just a little bit to far apart, contributing to the bulky feel. I am by no means experienced but I hope you don't mind that I did a paint over. I adjusted the feet position and the curve of the calves.
My feet I didn't get centered super well looking back at it. But hopefully this is the right idea.

Hey thanks Lockenheim! I had someone else tell me the same thing and I appreciate you helping too! I'll keep that in mind when I do it again. : )

Did some gesture drawings and figure I could post some for feedback. Hoping they read well and I appreciate any support! I did mostly 30 second poses and a few 1 minute poses. So far I've been enjoying doing these and definitely want to keep at it!

These have a nice flow to them. The main advice I'd give is to not go over a line or direction more then once. They look scratchy so I think trying to capture every line in one go can help you improve.

Thank you Lesley! I'll keep that advice in mind

Looking good! I would second this. One thing I hear Marc say a lot on stream is to focus on doing one line and if you don't hit it the line use CTRL + Z. This will slow your time down a ton at first, but it will improve your line quality a ton as well. Nice work! Keep it up!
