Weekly Assignment #6

I realize pretty much no one else from my school is doing this anymore, but I think it's good practice and it's helped me add some great life drawing pieces to my portfolio, so I'm just going to keep trucking along with the weekly assignments. This week was to draw 3 landscapes. I took over my sister's nannying job for the week which gave me lots of time and new places to draw. So here it goes:
At one of the kid's baseball games. I need to learn how to draw straight lines.

At Cascade Bay, a community pool. Fun but challenging to draw. Could have attempted drawing the water better than I did, but otherwise, this is my favorite of the 3.

Weekly Assignment #5

Another weekly assignment-draw 10 people. The first two are from the nursing home my grandma is at. My mom and I went to visit her and my grandpa and they had this happy hour event-a good time to draw lots of old people (who are incredibly fun to draw....even more so than morbidly obese people!). The third set is from Dunn Bros. and the last one is of a rabbit at Petco (first time drawing a real rabbit!). I'm happy with how this turned out, I didn't have the stiffness problem like I did with the last set up of the people I drew.

My grandparents enjoying Happy Hour.
