I want to say that I got emotional part way through the workshop. I've focused so hard and for so long on the mechanical function of art, while suppressing the exciting/fun lines, that I broke down a bit.  I can't stop thinking about what I've learned so far and experimenting.  This workshop is a baby step to much more than I realized concerning art - and freeing those happy little lines

This is my work so far, hopefully can add more work later on as I finish more exercises... I've also added some extra sketches that I had to play around with (ballpoint pen)
