Urte - Art School Journey

Hello! My name is Urte, I'm 22 years old and I'm from Lithuania.
I have been drawing as long as I can remember, started getting more seriously into art in high school, because I was hoping to study art in university, but wasn't able to do it in the end. I studied Multimedia technologies and while in university art was kind of put off to the side. After finishing uni this year I started working as a game developer but realised that programing just wasn't the field for me and that I still really want to do art.
So I've decided to pick up art again and improve my skills so I can hopefully someday do it for a living. I found this course and decided to try it out since I never really learned art fundimentals and stuff from a profosional artist.

Everyone seems to be realy nice and helpfull here so hoping to have fun with this course!
Also here are some of my drawing from the last year, to get a look at what I can and like to do.

So currently I am still in term 1. I've done stuff from the photoshop class and here are some of the exercises from that class. I really liked the one with matching the colors with the adjustments and the combining image parts of the young to old images.

Also I've been working on the cylinder skeleton drawing excercises and proportion exercise. Drawing the figures with the cylinders is really actually helping with understanding the shape of the limbs in space. Although I'm still struggling a bit with getting the size and especialy width of the figures right, I always seem to make the width of the figure too wide, but I'm trying to consously think about that while drawing.

These are the first ones I did.

And here are some of the latest ones I've done.

Hey, back again with some figure studies. Have been doing the cylinder exercise, some proportion exercise. Also did my first figure drawings with the measuring technique and gesture drawings. The gesture drawing are very messy and I've noticed that my hands gets kind of stiff after them, so need to learn to relax while doing them more.
The pictures are put sort of chronologically.

Also drew a new profile pic for myself, just wanted to share Played around with layer blend modes while making this and got a cool color scheme that I think I wouldn't have though of myself

And wanted to thank you guys for welcoming me glad to be here!

Hello, haven't posted in some time, so I'm here to show what I've been doing. I've been doing a lot of gesture drawing, i feel like I'm getting slightly better, better at not making it so sketchy and making my lines a bit more confident. Some days are better, some days are worse, on worse days I try to do the sessions a few times.

Also started working on the Perspective class assignments. Did some perspective overdraws of some photos, and got confused by some of them In the 1 point perspective canvas the bottom left image confuses me a bit, don't quite understand if it is one point or two point perspective, since the convergence lines can come to two different points, but they are situated vertically.

Also in the two perspective studies the two right side images are a bit confusing. The top one looks like it has 3 point perspective, so that one I do understand, but the bottom one has 3 point on the horizon so it is kind of confusing to me.

Also did some cube drawings in different 1 and 2 point perspectives.

So yeah, that my progress so far. I've also been working on some personal projects, but haven't finished anything yet, so not much else to show. Thanks to everyone who checks out and have a great day!
