So... The assignment was to choose from a list of subjects an image to draw several times throughout the day and hopefully get better at drawing it. I chose skulls. Since it is Halloween, I have a few decorations that I referenced for a couple of the sketches and then I also reviewed an image of skull online to reference for shape, etc.
Still not feeling great about my skills but I know I won't ever get better without trying, sure wish it came easier but nothing worthwhile comes easy (if you believe in clichés). The images were taken with my cell phone so sorry about the quality.
We are taking the 21 day drawing challenge and sharing our progress with the world. The challenge is a course that is on Lynda.com, http://www.lynda.com/Design-Illustration-tutorials/21-Day-Drawing-Challenge/164144-2.html, if you choose to take this on for yourselves. Comments are welcome and encouraged but when offering critique please be considerate and kind.

Now that I have completed my 365 Photo project, I am embarking on a challenge that I am pretty hesitant about.
My motivation in taking this on is the desire to improve my drawing ability, even if it is only by a small amount. I was never much of a doodler or sketcher but have admired the eye and abilities of those who seem to effortlessly make a sketch and have it look good. I am trying to keep my expectations sort of low but don't want to set myself for failure by keeping the bar too low but I want it low enough that I don't get too discouraged. I am planning on adding pictures of my images daily thus continuing my 365 project :). My supplies are purchased and I am ready to start today. Hold on tight, this might be a bumpy ride....
