Gravely Angelic

I loved this figure immediately as I passed it in the cemetery. Her wings seemed ready to actually pull her up into the sky. I like how the drawing came out, although the mosquitoes were biting so I failed to get the detail in the wings that I wanted.

Second Guessing Assumptions

So I decided that it's challenging to capture someone else's rendition of a human being. Instead of being able to make my own assumptions on the texture of cloth or hair, I have to work from someone else's assumption. Good to know that it's not my favorite.

Happy with Hesitancy

Not of fan of this hurried drawing technique. The only part I do like was the still moment between the two figures that I captured. I'm pretty sure it was their first date, maybe a second. I am happy with the hesitancy between them.

A Warped and Weathered Perspective

This one is just bizarre. I liked the tree, but the ladies enjoying the weather really warped the perspective of the drawing. They seem to be separate drawings but also not? Oh well, I had fun with the tree.

Abe Lincoln, Thanks For the View

While I was drawing this, I hated the landscape and the woman on the right. Still don't like how the woman came out, but the reflecting pond and bushes grew on me. Ew, pun. Also I like the Kardashian-type lady on the left.

Baby Mario and His Dad

I didn't get a good picture of the little boy or his brother, but he had a tiny little Mario hat on. Also I like the scribbled texture of the dad's hair.

Hurried Moments on an Unhurried Monument

Okay so this was just a straight up challenge. These people sat down for what felt like 45 seconds and then were up and moving again! I probably should have focused on the one still feature in view, but there's no fun in that. I kind of like the bushes that line the reflecting pool.
