Drawing Week - Day 1

I'm not sure how well I will be able to keep up with this, but I'm going to give it a shot. I spent about 30 minutes doodling tonight. Back in April for our wedding anniversary, we each got some books; one of the books I got was a set called The Art of the Doodle by Eleanor Kwei, and it goes over doodling and has a cute little book to fill in once you've practiced the principles in the guide book. I've been slowly practicing the things in the book. 


Today, I practiced drawing curved lines using my wrist and arm, drawing parallel lines in a draped manner, and doing some gesture drawing. I actually enjoyed this more than I have the past few times I've drawn because I wasn't worried about it looking really good.
