I’m started draw.
Thank you Scott for another great episode. I keep hoping if I follow along enough times, drawing will become easier. I really liked the reflections on the vase. You point out things I would not normally see.
First attempt to watch and draw along at the same time. Good cognitive exercise for me
Wonderful work here, Heathyrre!
Nice work here, Brenda!
I’m glad you liked it!
Thank you for another wonderful session. Really liked the sensitivity. My first upload didn’t work. Trying again.
Challenging pitcher, but very good exercise. Thank you, Scott!
Challenging subject! I didn’t quite get the proportions correct, but after adding the reflections in the vase too soon, I did follow your advice and wiped it down. That helped! At least I pulled it out of the ugly stage. Lol.
Very nice work here, Lynn!
Wonderful work, Monica!
Great work with this! I like seeing different media here.
Wonderful work with this!
Great job with this!
Beautiful, Cindy!
I love the feeling of light in the curtains you achieved. This is on very smooth off white paper and Derwent Med and dark.
Really enjoyed this subject matter. 11×12, white drawing paper, using Derwent graphite pencils. To get the sides of the pitcher somewhat correct I turn the reference photo, and the drawing on its side. It helped.
Ebony pencil on Strathmore watercolor paper. Love how the rough paper shows in the drawing. Thanks for another great class, Scott.
For some reason, my image wouldn’t load.
I did this with Conte and white charcoal on black paper. Wow, my proportions and symmetry are way off. Maybe it’s Picasso style.
Thanks Scott, this was fun.
Finally able to get one done the same day as the lesson. I’m pretty happy with this one. Thanks again for such wonderful lessons!
great drawing time thank you
This is my drawing of the pitcher. Enjoyed the class today! Thanks Scott!
