Author-ized L.J.<p><a href="https://writeout.ink/tags/ScribesAndMakers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ScribesAndMakers</span></a> Jul 30: Whether or not you did everything you hoped to, what's something that went well this month?</p><p>I started making <a href="https://writeout.ink/tags/artPractice" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>artPractice</span></a> drawings again! I got mentally stuck for months on a <a href="https://writeout.ink/tags/perspective" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>perspective</span></a> study gone awry (left) before I restarted from scratch yesterday and got to a more satisfactory version (right) in one sitting.</p>
Eve Ventually<p>Not totally happy with the perspective but I probably never will be. :blobcatgiggle: </p><p><a href="https://toot.cat/tags/ArtPractice" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ArtPractice</span></a></p>
Eve Ventually<p>Believe it or not, this isn't meant to be a theme. >_> Done for the moment. I'll probably give it one more shot at the rough in before I attempt the color drawing again.</p><p>Getting the perspective correct is challenging. The new rough in (the one on the right) is closer to correct but still off from my reference photo (that I took myself).</p><p><a href="https://toot.cat/tags/ArtPractice" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ArtPractice</span></a></p>
Eve Ventually<p>Today's <a href="https://toot.cat/tags/ArtPractice" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ArtPractice</span></a> was digital. I'm not giving up paper but I do need to develop my skills doing this digitally too.</p>
Eve Ventually<p>My proportions still need practice but it should be pretty recognizable. :blobcatgiggle: </p><p><a href="https://toot.cat/tags/ArtPractice" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ArtPractice</span></a></p>
Eve Ventually<p>Today's practice is my voice recorder. I borrowed my lavalier mic from its case while I tried to get dictation working on Linux to help with my carpal tunnel. I still draw right-handed so the injury doesn't relate to why I haven't drawn as much lately. ^_^</p><p><a href="https://toot.cat/tags/ArtPractice" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ArtPractice</span></a></p>
Eve Ventually<p>Playing with some vectors I made of a <a href="https://toot.cat/@EveHasWords/114291499062293485" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">previous</a> <a href="https://toot.cat/tags/ArtPractice" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ArtPractice</span></a> as my practice today. I'll probably decrease the contrast a bit further and placement isn't final. I'm working on backgrounds for a promo graphic.</p>
Eve Ventually<p>Today's practice is more of a doodle with a bad joke involving the thing that vampires eat.</p><p><a href="https://toot.cat/tags/ArtPractice" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ArtPractice</span></a></p>
Eve Ventually<p>I'm trying to incorporate more organic things into my drawing practice. I started on this yesterday.</p><p>It's not finished but I figured I'd share some of my works in progress as best I could. The picture I'm working from as a reference is one I took myself of a feature near to my house. I'm not entirely sure what the human made structure actually is. It's embedded in the side of a hill and has all sorts of plants around it. The conical section is concrete. The top bit is painted metal that has rusted through the paint in a few places.</p><p><a href="https://toot.cat/tags/ArtPractice" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ArtPractice</span></a></p>

Eve Ventually<p>Today's practice is a pine cone. I've attempted a start at it a few times but couldn't bring myself to actually draw it until today.</p><p><a href="https://toot.cat/tags/ArtPractice" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ArtPractice</span></a></p>
Eve Ventually<p>I got a pine cone from the yard. It turns out that's going to take a few days to draft. I drew a color pencil but felt that was too easy. :blobcatflop: This should be familiar to a lot of people. This is the final of a bunch of attempts to make that shadow. The T part of TRS also needs some help. :blobcatgiggle: </p><p><a href="https://toot.cat/tags/ArtPractice" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ArtPractice</span></a></p>
Eve Ventually<p>I watched a video last night that was supposed to be about using charcoal for drawing but turned to be more fundamental about drawing. Today's practice reflects a few things I learned from it. Unfortunately, I didn't save a link to the video.</p><p><a href="https://toot.cat/tags/ArtPractice" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ArtPractice</span></a></p>
Eve Ventually<p>Did this while I was watching videos. Pretty happy with the art itself but I had scanner issues. Ugh.</p><p><a href="https://toot.cat/tags/ArtPractice" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ArtPractice</span></a></p>
Eve Ventually<p>Since I'm taking the day off, I was playing around with one of the stick n poke ideas I have (the mouse cursor) rather than really trying to do any drawing. I ended up drawing a soup can and a musical note.</p><p>It kind of reminds me of <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Floyd%E2%80%93Steinberg_dithering" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Floyd-Steinberg</a> dithering which I have feelings about.</p><p><a href="https://toot.cat/tags/ArtPractice" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ArtPractice</span></a></p>
Eve Ventually<p>This is a HIBY R1. I ran out of time yesterday. The bulk of the drawing happened today anyway.</p><p>Despite trying to draw small things bigger than they are, this came out really close to the size of the actual device.</p><p>(I don't endorse the HIBY R1 but this isn't a product review either.)</p><p><a href="https://toot.cat/tags/ArtPractice" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ArtPractice</span></a></p>
Eve Ventually<p>I've kind of fallen off on my practice a bit. Largely because of school and publishing stuff. This drawing in real life is about 3 inches tall. Kind of something I've been meaning to practice (drawing small things much bigger). I've got more thoughts there but I'll leave 'em be.</p><p><a href="https://toot.cat/tags/ArtPractice" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ArtPractice</span></a></p>
Eve Ventually<p>Today's practice is my pencil sharpener. Since I do most of my drawing with a mechanical pencil these days, it doesn't get much use.</p><p><a href="https://toot.cat/tags/ArtPractice" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ArtPractice</span></a></p>
