Observation Exercises
Image 2: Observation Exercise 1 - Line Drawings
Mediums: 1.0mm drawing pen
Items are represented only by outlines, with no attention to detail.
Image 3: Observation Exercise 2 - Drawing shapes
Mediums: Watercolour
Draw only item shapes, not outlines.
Image 4: Observation Exercise 3 - Combining Shapes & Lines
Mediums: 1.0mm drawing pen and watercolour
I'm very unused to drawing with a brush, so I can't depict the shapes correctly.
While depicting the lines on the shapes, I was too obsessed with drawing all the lines, making the image a bit boring, so I'm not too happy with it.
Image 5: Observation Exercise 4 - Negative Space
Mediums: watercolour and 2B pencil
Fill in the non-subject parts first, then depict the subject.
I'm not good at drawing shadows, resulting in an image that lacks dimension. I also didn't accurately capture the features in the clothing and hair.
While drawing the subject in pencil, there were quite a few parts that I drew wrongly in the paint area, and it was difficult to erase them with a rubber.
