    Great work here. I love how 3D your drawings are. A few suggestions:

     

    1. Take better photos. It helps us appreciate your work and also give better feedback.
    2. Start placing your figures, animals into an environment. Even if you’re just using a cast shadow suggest this start thinking about where they are standing or making contact with the environment.
    3. More internal rhythm. You have the drawings feeling 3D but they also need more gesture to come to life!

    Hello Elizabeth,

    What I really like about your work is how structural it looks while still having a clear gesture behind it, especially the recent hands.

    After reading Joshua’s comment I agree that your next step could be to “ground” your animals/figures.

    Keep going 👋

    Hi Elizabeth,

    I really like the gestural qualities of these hands you’re drawing, as well as the confident marks. Although I do see that you are thinking of structure, I sketched out a couple of corrections to explain that the cross axis of each join of the fingers starting from the metacarpals and going through to the last phalanx, needs to be kept consistent. The hardest place to do this is towards the fingertips, and I see some issues there. Also, try to think of the palm as a big block and don’t forget those very important side planes. And finally, remember that the general proportion of the Metacarpal 3 ( metacarpal of the ring finger + at least some part of the carpal bone directly connected to it) is equal in length to the  phalanges of the ring finger.

    Good luck, and I can’t wait to see more awesome hand drawings.

    Iliya
