Well hello there, kids. I had this idea for a drawing exercise.

I'm callin' it Groove Draw (name subject to change)

It's more of an exercise to improve your conceptual skills, rather than technical.

The idea is to throw your music player on shuffle, and draw out a rough sketch in relation to the song playing by the time it ends. How you determine the relation is completely up to you.
I'm going to go ahead and say doing 3 to 5 songs in succession would be a pretty good exercise, but you can do as many as you'd like.

So that's about it, I think. Post what you draw up in here. Maybe one of the sketches will lead to something great.

Okay, so here is my first round. I did three songs.

In this case, I actually liked the first concept I came up with, which was for Wonderlust King. But I didn't have time to "finish" it. So I went back after the three songs and gave it an extra ten minutes or so. I like it.

No time. :c

TOO MUCH HOMEWORK.

Every time I look at my government reading I just feel rising waves of despair in my heart ahahaha... And I don't have a scanner. When I take a break I'll definitely do it though. :3
