Day #1 - Everything I see in.





It's official. Day #1 of the 365 daily drawing challenge. Frightening, isn't it? But after seeing an illustrator's amazing pieces of work, I decided that i wanted to have a go at it too. His name is Gabriel Picolo, if you ever want to check out his work. I'll post links below. :) The reason I wanted to do this challenge mainly was to get better at my drawing. I'm jealous of artists that have found their own visual signature and that's what I'm aiming to achieve too. Another aim is to be more disciplined and organized, as I'm usually a hit or miss when it comes that agenda.

The reason I chose to draw my glasses as the first drawing was because I have always worn glasses all my life as far as I can remember and I'll obviously use them to ensure I get all the details within an object when drawing. Fair to say I did well, but the issues i had with the drawing was that the lenses could have been drawn a little bigger and the light that comes in through the lenses, could've been drawn a lot more lighter. Part of the drawing challenge includes doing redraws, so I'll likely do this one again. Apparently, it's Inktober too, so expect a lot of biro and fineliner drawings. :) Til next time!
