First, thank you for that tip! I'll try to keep it in mind as I continue. Second, I really like the analogy that you used here. I'm not going to lie, sometimes I find myself getting frustrated when I struggle to correctly make the marks that I want to make. Seeing your explanation is encouraging; just because I'm making silly mistakes now doesn't mean I always will. Just gotta keep on drawing.
Thank you for the helpful critique! I took your advice and redid the organic perspective exercises. https://imgur.com/a/8mdbqr6
Rapid Viz is a book after mine own heart, and exists very much in the same spirit of the concepts that inspired Drawabox. It's all about getting your ideas down on the page, doing so quickly and clearly, so as to communicate them to others. These skills are not only critical in design, but also in the myriad of technical and STEM fields that can really benefit from having someone who can facilitate getting one person's idea across to another.
Where Drawabox focuses on developing underlying spatial thinking skills to help facilitate that kind of communication, Rapid Viz's quick and dirty approach can help students loosen up and really move past the irrelevant matters of being "perfect" or "correct", and focus instead on getting your ideas from your brain, onto the page, and into someone else's brain as efficiently as possible.
