I am a complete beginner in art. I signed up for the virtual instructor last week and I went through the first few lessons. So, I tried to draw the gorilla from the lesson using the knowledge from the previous lessons. I am pretty amazed how much one can learn from those lessons. I know my gorilla is not great, I know nothing about fur or wrinkles, but Iam pretty happy with my first drawing with graphite. Cant wait for what is coming ahead.

Hi Lilian! Welcome aboard. Are you kidding?? You show great potential and you certainly should be happy with the result. You did a great job for someone who is so new at art. I love your gorilla and I have no doubt you will share many more drawings showcasing your progress. Thank you for sharing.

Thank you Neophos for the kind words and thanks for the tip. I did try to go darker, but my poor quality paper didnt allow me to go any further…
Really good drawing showing his face. You go, girl, if this is your ‘begining’ then you will go far. Looking forward to seeing whatelse you accomplish.
