Observation sketches

Just finished my semester of character design classes at Concept Design Academy! I am going to try to be better about updating this blog. I'm going to make a few posts today of some of the things I drew while I was taking classes (or maybe spread them out over a couple of days).

First, some observation sketches! We were supposed to observe people and animals but design and stylize the figures, not just copy directly from life. These are not nearly all of the drawings I did, Just a selection.

From the first couple weeks, drawings of my pets and at the zoo (and a few people):



And these were a little later in the semester:


Next up: progress of the animal character design assignment!
