I really really love doing still lives and things like this.

This is about 60-70 iterations of paws drawn from tons and tons of references, mostly wolf pictures. I don't claim any of these as my own, so please don't trace them or anything. I made notes along the way cause it helps me to process what I'm learning and I figured if someone else gets something out of this then that's a good thing.

Try it sometime Pick something you want to draw better, and then draw 25-100 of them from accurate references. Try to look beyond just the silhouette or the lines - try to understand the structure of whatever you're drawing and how to build it. Break it down into shapes or drop a few lines in there to connect points and study angles. It's a fun challenge. I think it's fun, anyway.

It's a practice sketch, so I don't know if there's much to critique, but if you have thoughts then I'd love to hear them.
