    Make it a story!

    So before I got into art I was trying to be a writer, and could never really picture the things I was writing about, so I started drawing. Because of that whenever I draw I typically have a stgory along with it. If it's a still life, try to imagine a different place that object could be, a bowl of fruit ona coutner or a pirate ship, at a picnic at the park!

    If you have an interest in music or history, draw something pertaining to that or involved in some obsure way, even if you are the only one that would know the influence.

    For people it makes it a bit easier to do, try to imagine what feeling you are feeling or something the figure will be thinking, or why they're in the pose you selected, just having a little story to tell yourself can help drive you forard. Dont' be afraid to get silly, that's where a lot of creativety comes from.

    I really enjoyed the rendering on your first five minute piece, really blocks out the figure and gives a definite form to it. For your second one, it was coming along nicely as well before the time went out, and one thing I think that'd really help your speed is applying more or less pressure. The lines are all very one size, and even if its not as defined as it could be with more time, adding line weight to imply shadows or light could really help bring out a figure before run out of time.

    And for your looser sketches, don't be afriad to loosen up more! Some of the lines are pretty straight, I find even working with a slightly more curvy or "s" type of line when sketching out a figure fast can help imply more natural movement.

    Otherwise, great work so far!!

    This incredible imporvement, I can really see the flow of the movement of the gestures and especially with the line weight it really shows your improvement, can't wait to see you at the 2000 mark!
