I don't know why drawing strictly from observation instills pride within myself. It's stupid.

It looks nice, but you could be totally brain-dead and produce the same results.

It's simply a time sink.

Once you know what you're doing, it's totally pointless to do observational drawings unless they're from life.

I now know why I have a total lack of respect for human printers. A bit more time in there and I would hit photo realism just by copying values and reproducing them. I guess there really was validity in my complaints. This practice is truly only good for introducing people to art.
