These are some of my early sketches at the start of high school. I found them when I started teaching art back at my high school. I use them to demonstrate that the only thing separating what my students can do right now, and what I have trained to do, is practice, practice, practice. Sometimes students get frustrated with their skill acquirement because I can come along, and seemingly, show them quickly what went wrong. They say, "You make it look so easy!" I tell them only because I have thirty years extra practice on them!
Indeed, when I show them my high school work, we all have a good laugh, because they know what my comment as an evaluator, to myself as a student would be:"more contrast required"
