I'm currently enrolled at the Art Institute of California in Los Angeles, and have started on a Fundamentals of Drawing class. I kind of needed something that wasn't my self-taught thing.

So, homework was to perspective draw some boxes and shoes. This is my assignment:



I got an A, but that's really not saying much compared to my classmate's work. I mean, their work is horrible compared to mine, and mine isn't even all that great. At least in my opinion.

This is 1 hour 30 minutes of footage compressed to about 3 minutes of video.

You and your inventive ways to post stuff. I swear man. I woulda been like "Here's something I had to draw for class" and the posted the image and the description.

Awesome background music as well though. I'm uber glad you DID post it in a video though. First, I have the same drawing pencil set as you! I love 'em and use them quite frequently. Not sure if they're the "best" out there, or if they're just like everything else, but they get the job done and they're blue, so... but also, what sort of cloth did you have in your hand when you were darkening the lines? Something like that would probably solve a LOT of my own frustrations when I work.

As the work goes itself, sure, I've seen better, but don't knock the A, because I can see where you've gotten it from. It's not like the work is terrible either, and I highly doubt I could produce the same quality you did, and I work VERY hard at my work. So, even if you're going to say its "not all that great" I still say it's better than most I've seen. And besides, perspective sucks. I've seen those damn rules turn some of the best things into something slightly awkward and boring.

I want to see more of your work like this though!

I broadcast my drawing sometimes on my website (http://eccentricitycomic.info/live), but not often because of the time it takes. I usually only broadcast the webcomic stuff, though. I also don't have a scanner big enough for the

Cloth is just a cotton handkerchief I use when I'm drawing since I have sweaty palms, and my teacher requires redrawing the entire thing if he finds smudges.

But, yes, getting an A in this class would only be awesome if my classmates were much of a competition for the A. They're not. But, it is a beginning class, so when I move into the upper division classes, the grades will be more competitive. For now, an hour for homework is nothing.

At least until we started pencil shading, and now I'm fucked.

It does suck that broadcasting the drawings takes time, but when you do it, it's time well worth it. DEFINITELY an interesting way to present your work.

And I know you're comparing your work to your other classmates, but I'm only seeing your's right here, so without the other work to compare to, I still think the shoes are pretty awesome.

And I haven't checked out everything yet, but I bookmarked the site. I miss the Whitey videos...XD

Whitey's way bigger now.

And there are still videos of him on my Ustream. At least until I can do other things.

But, I'm in a bit of a depression right now, my own webcomic makes me sad, and I just power through schoolwork because every other creative venture leaves me feeling inadequate and useless.

This also stems from my 7 months of unemployment and being graded sub-par on assignments. I understand that I'm not doing stuff up to my full potential, but it just sucks to have my depression triggered.
