Admin Post: Drawing Challenge #16 - Age Diversity

[goss]

This is the third in our series of Diversity challenges. When sketching the human figure, young and middle-aged adults tend to be the most prominently portrayed age group. The goal of this particular challenge is to break out of defaulting to that age range when drawing, and instead focus on others who also make up a significant percentage of the population (ie. babies, children, mature adults and the elderly).

Challenge #16: Age Diversity

Create a drawing featuring someone either very young or very old.

Challenge yourself to draw an age group that you've rarely attempted portraying, or one that you would like to see more widely represented in media. The comment section of this post may be used for discussion of the prompt (ie. ideas, suggestions, questions, etc.).

A round-up post for submissions to this challenge will be done on Saturday 28th April, 2018.

Happy Drawing, everyone! :)

Since I unknowingly did an old person for this challenge already *g*, I’m going to try kids, which I’ve rarely attempted (my only efforts were Dick Grayson years ago). And my brain immediately came up with Peggy&Steve&Bucky kid!AU. What would they have been like growing up together?

It's great that you've created works this week that fulfill both sides of the challenge. :)

Do you think I should resubmit Boothby under challenge 16 instead of 15?

[goss]

No need to resubmit, but I think you could probably just edit your original art post to add on the challenge #16 tag, since it fulfills both challenges and was done this same week.

I'll also include it as part of the Age Diversity challenge round up. :)

Great thanks! I’ll probablydo a different art for challenge 15 anyway later.
