Some gestures & croquis

The midyear review went okay. As expected, pretty much all teachers agree that my work process is too messy and that my drawing fundamentals kind of suck. On the other hand they like my ideas, storytelling and Mike liked my dance animation in particular. ("Excellent" - yay!") So I'll try to get back into the croquis habit as well to strengthen my draftsmanship because that's been frustrating me for quite a while now.

Colour class with Lawrence was both frustating, fun and very enlightening. I see a long line of still-lives coming up, I'd really like to keep working on that. Once I fix my final assignment I might post that too, it's nothing extraordinary but Lawrence said he liked it and the lighting was good, only that my painting technique itself is really awful, haha.

I'm slowly getting better at gesture drawing... Doing it regularly is starting to pay off already. Here are results from recent sessions, plus two from croquis.
