My long drawings have continually increased in quality. The line weights and the proportions of the figure are slowly becoming stronger. At the beginning of the class I had a habit of making many marks to make a line of the figure, I have worked through this quite a bit and my drawings are becoming better and better. I have also seen improvement in my sketching in my ID class. Through gestures and trying to create the human figure with mostly lines and different line weights my design sketches have loosened up to create more interesting and visually appealing drawings. The drawing posted below is my most successful drawing at this point in time. The line variation creates a sense of dimension and the fore-shortening of the legs is very effective. Also the overlap of the lines on the knee and back ankle gives a lot of good information about the figure.

Caleb,
I've commented below, but in order to give you a grade for your summary, I need you to finish writing about your long drawings. When you've finished posting that, email me and I will comment and give you a grade.

Caleb,
Your long drawings are very strong. You have a good sense of proportion, you include anatomical landmarks, and you have beautiful line variation. Excellent work!
