After warm up - 2m drawing

I like the final lines you settled on. They look pretty and convincing, and communicate a pose, a gesture and even a mood very well.

I got a bit of a personal dislike for searching lines, I feel they should by avoided, I know it is possible to train to avoid them.... but then I also know, there are a lot of people, who don't care, so it might be just a me problem.

At least you clearly indicate what your final line is with your line weight, so the overall drawing still looks tidy and concise.

If you followed up your final line with a black brush or marker and added some bright expressive colors, this has easily the quality of a nice illustration for a children's book.

Hello and good evening, Marguerite, so, nice job on your final lines. Very believable, but they communicate the attitudes so well.

I have one small issue or problem, and that is with itchy, searching lines. Too sloppy to me yet. How would you like to go ahead with 3 minutes of 1 minute poses and basic shapes?

The reason why you could and would go with this tiny request is because of two things: First of all, to help yourself get acquainted with the basics of rendering, and second, to help make your sketches less stiff but more fluid but lively, even in still lifes.

Thank you.
