These were very quick and simple. I didn't know where to start or how to make this any better, so all I know how to do is replicate my reference photos and try my best.

here, I tried to practice different shades of green and how they would look on these plants. I also wanted to figure out if I preferred neat or circular watercoloring techniques.

here's more examples of me practicing details on plants. On the right, I was getting more used to the pen I had and I had a better idea of what I wanted my plants to look like. I also learned that I liked messier-style drawings, making them look obviously free-handed.

In the image below, I tried to amplify the details of the leaves. However, I was lost on the areas where I should've focused on- this made my drawing look awkward.

below are my first (left), second (middle), and third(right) attempts at drawing hands. I learned that hands would be extremely harder than I imagined, and it was even more frustrating knowing that I had a reference in front of me. This is when I learned that drawing isn't always exactly replicating the real-life reference. You have to add distinctive lines, shades, and shapes that accentuate all the details.

Here, I was getting comfortable with using lines and hatches as a form of shading. I learned that thicker pens would be more helpful than more lines with thinner pens, making the understory darker.

Here, I was trying to accentuate the shadows and the understory of the tree. I was also trying to get the hang of drawing the focus points of the tree's outline instead of an entire circle on the top.

Here, I was trying to figure out my art style or really anything that I was most comfortable with. This ended up being easy for me to draw, and I liked the end result. This is what I believe my art style is, and I hope to improve it.
