    I just have to say I am extending the segments in the branches but looking them over again I see they don't extend fully halfway to the next ellipse.

    Before I hand in the extra pages I forgot to ask if you wanted 1 page of both ellipse exercises or just a specific one?

    I'm using chrome. I see the additional pages now but they weren't there this morning for some reason. Anyway I see it now so I guess it's ok now.

    I didn't realize I forgot to post the flowers. Just for completeness here they are https://imgur.com/7oqVP6J And you say your going to assign more pages but I don't see anything listed.

    I was just thinking one of the reasons that I'm not doing well with all of this is because I'm not thinking about past lessons in the new lessons. My thinking is "that lesson is done let's learn something new now in the next one". And I tend to just focus on the new instructions without trying to incorporate the previous ones.

    Revised Homework

    I added the arrows.

    I draw lines and go over them 5 times each and I draw ellipses and I actually do draw though them, which is strange since I can't remember to do that in the homework. I do each of those for a full sheet of paper. That is the extent of the warm ups. I probably should add the intersection practice but I just don't think of it at the time.

    I didn't even realize I forgot to post my arrows so i apologize. And I didn't do anything with the pots because I didn't think they mattered for this lesson. But I get it, if I draw it it should be done properly. And I could have sworn I did the branches right. I have to admit if I'm not getting the fundamentals of the course then I'm not sure I'll do any better in the future.

    Some of the issue is I'm not getting any more comfortable using the fineliner. I'm not sure that is going to change.Between that and my forgetting to work through the some things I should have down already (ellipses etc) It's getting more frustrating to me.

    I guess m confusion comes from the fact that when talking about branches you mention ellipses when I'm thinking tubes/cylinders. But I see what your saying.

    This isn't a critique but I'm not sure you're aware that your title says lesson 3 but your imgur is of lesson 2

A lot of my students use these. The last time I used them was when I was in high school, and at the time I felt that they dried out pretty quickly, though I may have simply been mishandling them. As with all pens, make sure you're capping them when they're not in use, and try not to apply too much pressure. You really only need to be touching the page, not mashing your pen into it.

In terms of line weight, the sizes are pretty weird. 08 corresponds to 0.5mm, which is what I recommend for the drawabox lessons, whereas 05 corresponds to 0.45mm, which is pretty close and can also be used.
