Good evening  
I started with LOD lines and shape replications. I’m thinking of doing lines every day as a warm-up guide.  
I’ve made several large LOD sheets, and test circles to see what needs to be reworked.  
My main problem is getting to the destination point on large lines.  
I started the shape replications today.  
I make a vertical strip, check and correct by eye.  
Then I check with the layer and correct.  
I redo the same vertical strip if there are several errors, allowing myself to move forward in the patterns so I don’t get used to them.

It’s a very intense programme! (a bit crazy!? 😉 ) I hope I’ll manage to keep going and not get bored or discouraged… and also have enough time to keep going 🙂  
I draw on an easel, standing up.  
I’m discovering charcoal pencil, I use graphite or coloured pencils more often.  
For paper, I recycle…
