Results - week 2

It's Tor, here with my results!

Q. What did you think when you saw the week's task?
A. That it was interesting, and the kind of thing I might come across in a book and like the look of but never actually do!

Q. How do you feel about your results?
A. I guess the results aren't the point of this exercise, but I liked the lines in rhythm with varying widths, they look quite pleasing. And in terms of loosening up, I find it's always useful to remind myself of different ways to hold the pencil, and that I don't have to cramp over it always in the same way!

Q. What was the part of the challenge you enjoyed least?
A. Being slow and filling up the boxes I'd drawn for myself.

Q. And the most?
A. I did find it freeing to draw from the shoulder and I liked the breathing and swaying about!

Q. Did you learn anything?
A. I felt like I had to slow down and suppress my natural hastiness, and accept that my drawings weren't going to be figurative or representative of anything much! I guess I learned (again) that this kind of mark-making isn't for me - I'm too impatient.

Q. Any final thoughts?
A. Thanks Els, it was out of my comfort zone but good for me!
