It's the 1st of October, and the start of our annual Drawtober challenge over at drawesome! :D

I don't think I was able to manage participating at all last year, but I'm determined to do it this time around. Sometimes it helps to keep a theme in mind or a particular direction to go in, so I'm thinking about focusing on figure drawing - gestures, line of action, musculature, that sort of thing.

Day 1's prompt was THROUGH A WINDOW. I sketched the figure from a reference photo and filled with marker:



Feels like I haven't done any art in forever, so this is a good start I think! :)

One of my art goals is learning to convey movement using fewer strokes, to develop a more loose and natural figure drawing style, which I know will only come with practice. Not sure how many sketches I'll be able to do this month, but I'm hoping for around 10.

Here's the list of daily art prompts, for my own reference:
