Day 4: Trying to imply motion through the image. Several reference photos later came up with these two. I also may have opened a can of worms. Tomorrow may be A LOT of practice with that. We shall see.

Two faces, both trying to present movement in the image itself. I then opened the can of worms with perspective. Oh boy..

Started to do sketches/practice daily three days ago. Thought I'd start sharing daily my progress. Here are the first three days. My notes are getting more plentiful on my thoughts from in the moment. Be back tomorrow with my next page. <3

Practicing intentionality of lines and shapes at first. Followed that with my first attempts at embracing the human form. Lastly my first ever face (Gotta start somewhere). Did three wire frame sketches. One full of sass, one folded arms, last is on all fours like a gremlin. I then tried to do a few more faces then realized I had no idea how to do hair. On the last face I tried my best attempt at hair, it was.. definitely a newer sketch level of experience hair implementation. This is day two so I am not too harsh on myself. Tries a few more mouths. Kind of getting a feel for this style. May have to try a different style eventually, but I am enjoying myself now so I will keep at this style. :) HAIR DAY! I did 4 heads with all attempts trying to figure out the hair and how best to represent it on a sheet of paper focusing on shapes then adding minimal detail to show its hair and not a blanket on top of the head. My FAVORITE thus far is my third one or the bottom right. It just clicked for that one. Gotta figure what I did to do this. Experimented with use of guidelines to show where features of the face should be. It was new, but I loved the outcome. It was part of, what I think, was the success of that third head. I lastly did some more lines to test if I can do straight ones on command then filling in the shapes in the boxes. Lines were okay, tracing over them was okay as well. Shapes could use some work. How do I do circles??? (pulls up Spongebob tutorial)

Not only did I #vote on ballot one for my precinct, they also gave me a second of the most GOATed "I voted" sticker.
