Mid Portfolio Review

In summary some weaknesses of my drawings are understanding contours and suggestive lines. Another weakness would be not always knowing what line weights work best in a drawing/sketch. A couples strengths would be proportion and understanding the curves of the spine.
I'm not really any troubles with my manikin right now, except it not being as far as I hoped. Some strength I feel are proportion and enjoy seeing how the muscles work with the human body mechanically.
I would like to develop the skills of quick figure drawing and contouring technique along with line weight. I guess I would say I want to work on my weakness and push my strengths.

First Week of Life Drawing

Hi All,
My name is Joseph Rasmussen. I'm attending UW-Stout for Industrial Design. I'm in my fourth year here at Stout and plan on graduating in the spring. I'm looking forward to taking this class and improving my drawing skills and abilities.
