Hi!
Today I studied 2 books I got about animal drawing: "How to draw animals" by Jack Hamm and "The art of animal drawing" by Kent Hultgren, both really interesting and helpful! I've already learned a few cool things to have in mind and to practice. Since all I did today was taking notes and a few sketches, I'm afraid I have nothing "original" to share today, but I'm going to fix that for tomorrow :)

Day 2
Hi!
Trying to get in the mood of drawing this morning wasn't as easy as I expected. I did several tries using basic shapes and quick drawings, until I felt comfy. As you can see my drawings are really messy and I like that, but that's not an excuse to don't learn how to draw "correctly". I hope to improve with a book I'm going to study tomorrow.
Again, I mainly used as reference some old books. Quick drawings are below, nothing great, but good practice nonetheless, there are a few more that I didn't upload :)
Bye!

Day 1
Hi! I'm late but the first day post is here :)
I put together recent drawings I did as practice using as reference some old animal books I got. It has been really fun to experiment without knowing too much about the end result! As you can see I kind of love animals and chances are that I'm going to keep them as a subject for drawing in the long run.
I plan to wake up earlier tomorrow so I can practice in silence and get a few chunk of them to upload. I also need to find a better setup for my scanner xd

Day 0: Which road?
Greetings strangers, if any!
Getting started officially as a blogger and setting everything for this shared experience to work the best way as I write this down. That's definitely a lot more than I expected earlier today or any other day! There's not much to say but lots to do in the long run. So what's all this about anyway? Perseverance, getting confidence, being self aware, learning, understanding, mistakes (lots) and having fun are an extremely important part of the project. What could be reached if you are persistent enough? What difficulties and awards await? Is it going to be fun? Am I up to the task? I have no idea and I love that! because whether it goes well or badly, there's always something to learn about.
I'm going to focus my efforts in drawing and understanding the basics of the related subjects that inhabit my thoughts through day to day practice. So you should know in advance that there's not too much to admire in the drawings from this beginner, as the skills and presentation needs obvious improvement, but expect the journey to be fun nonetheless.
