Winter Break Homework!

ok so I haven't put anything out on this blog officially yet, but since it's another leap year coming up I'm going to reboot this project! My thoughts are that instead of just any drawing sufficing, I will do a finished/semi-finished piece every day. Basically, the idea came from Inktober which I did for the first time this last October and it helped me a lot and was a super good motivation to work on personal art and not just homework art and I was like I need to do this all the time!! So I am going to do that for this site for the year of 2016! You will be very astounded to see how much my art and work ethic have improved in the last four years. But, as a way to kind of gear up for this, and also to hopefully not lose all my skills of an artist over the winter break, here is my self assigned winter break homework!!!!:

100 hands
100 feet
50 faces
Read and copy every drawing from Ken Hultgren’s The Art of Animal Drawing
25 knees
25 shoulders
25 arms 
10 elbows independent of arms
100 perspective drawings (this could be something as simple as a box or as complicated as a cityscape)
30 sketchbook pages

I posted this on my trash tumblr as well. I'm going to update as I complete this and also as I think of possible other assignments for me to do! Hold me accountable!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That's the whole point of this blog! holding myself accountable! ok I'm doing some math and this is how much of each thing I'll have to do on average per day over the break (not counting sundays it's 20 days)

1.5 sketchbook pages a day
22.5 drawings a day (not counting Hultgren because I am not going through that whole book and counting out how many drawings are in there)
5x hands, feet, perspective
2.5x faces (heh)
1.25x knees, shoulders and arms

16 DEC EDIT: I decided to reduce the number of elbows because I've been drawing a lot of elbows with my arm drawings so that changes my numbers a little bit. I'm going to recalculate how much work I need to do based on how much work I've already done (I'm... behind on everything I think.. except maybe hands)

1.6 sketchbook pages a day (I'm still aiming for 2 a day so this doesn't change too much)
22.5 drawings total per day
3.7 hands
5 feet (I am apparently on par on this one, who knew)
3 faces
1.6 knees & shoulders
.75 arms (heh, you can see what I've been working on)
.625 elbows
5.375 perspective drawings (these are probably the hardest for me, but I can feel them benefitting me the most)

26 Dec edit: sooooooo I've been hella slacker status, but I did draw this!!!:

After I finished off my last paper for school (the 21st) I've been spending pretty much all my time working on this. Ok but now that that'd done and Christmas is over, I better get back into this homework (dear me :/)

48/100 hands
22/100 feet
3/50 faces
Read and copy every drawing from Ken Hultgren’s The Art of Animal Drawing
0/25 knees
0/25 shoulders
15/25 arms 
0/10 elbows independent of arms
31/100 perspective drawings (this could be something as simple as a box or as complicated as a cityscape)
6/30 sketchbook pages

so that means:
7.4 hands
11.1 feet
6.7 faces
who knows what's happening with the animal book but that really ought to be my priority
3.5 knees and shoulders
1.4 arms and elbows
9.8 perspective drawings
3.5 sketchbook pages
45 DRAWINGS A DAY :0000000000 I hope I can do it I'll probably die


probably nobody cares about any of this but meeee!
