Day one

My sketches for today were of my left hand.

The reason I'm sticking to quick sketches right now is because of this abominhable anal-retentive streak I have, that won't let me just practice for a while. I want it to look right, so I'll keep drawing and erasing and drawing and erasing until I've given up and all I have is a blank sheet of paper with eraser marks on it. The rules I'm allowing myself for the drawings I'm doing to start out are: a) must be done in under 30min, and b) must use eraser minimally (or not at all, if possible). This makes it easier for me to simply pick up my graphite stick and start drawing without being terribly focused on a perfect result.

Problems I noticed while drawing:
- difficulty keeping proportions correct
- difficulty drawing straight lines
- difficulty drawing transparent things.
