This is it now onto my next course with Lewis - really looking forward to it!

It’s been great fun learning the techniques Lewis has shared and I’m really pleased with the results!

I loved my charcoal sketch but had to simplify it on the iPad light box as couldn’t really see the details. Anyway it’s all part of the learning process so let’s see where we end up.

Had to improvise with iPad used as a light box which worked ok but had to reduce amount of detail as couldn’t really see much of the finer marks.

This ‘Frankenstein’ is Scottish not sure if I put him together too well! 😆

Bottom right was quickest and best likeness!

Not sure if that’s the way it always works?

I thought I would get a 100% guess rate from my wife Paula but soon found out some of my childhood references didn’t make it to Brazil! (She moved to the UK when we met 10 years ago!)

Hi Lewis, thank you so much for sharing so much of your wisdom with us. You are very kind and incredibly talented. I can honestly say that every single thing I have learned art wise has come from you. I'm definitely not the best artist in the world, but thanks to you, your methods and your support, you have motivated me to learn to draw. I'm sorry for not posting earlier, but here's two pieces of artwork I've completed using your methods. I wish you and all the other students all the very best! Kind regards, Andrew

I think I’m ready to move on to ink wash with this one.

Was hoping to have one finished by the end of the class, but doesn’t look like I’ll quite make it!

I think I’ll stop here because I feel in danger of overworking the face. Haven’t decided yet whether I’ll do something with the background. Probably yes given the subject…

Side by side with shaded original…

Side by side with Frankenstein…

Tried to do more just blocking of light and shadow — and also worked only with soft pencil. (I forgot - I hate charcoal.)

# data[].attributes.body
Tried to do shapes - ended up with a more realized charcoal/pencil drawing. Will try again…

# data[].attributes.body
Frankensteined…

# data[].attributes.body
One more try before I move on to lesson 3. Having a hard time working with line rather than shading…

# data[].attributes.body
Second attempt - happier with this one.

# data[].attributes.body
No, it is not Bill Clinton, despite #1. I’m going to try this again, with a subject with more distinctive features…

# data[].attributes.body
Loved the idea of assignment 1 but didn't feel like doing recognizable faces. I did do the face quickly.

Keeping it minimal is so challenging!

A couple of folks come to mind looking at these, none of which are the reference "celebrity"!

also posted on FB, but then I got HACKED! And so frustrated I ended up deleting the account....I tend to do very detailed realistic drawings, so am trying hard to go FAST. :/

# data[].attributes.attachment_caption
Well this is embarrassing but here it goes

I don’t know if you can identify more than one.

I also don’t know if you can dm me on this.
