    It’s late but I want to say thank you for the critique, and thank you so much for running this course! I started because I couldn’t understand how to draw a cylinder in perspective, and now I have the confidence that I can draw plants/animals/vehicles, as long as I take the time to understand how the forms work! That feeling of confidence is really special to me so thank you again, I could feel it happening as I went through the exercises. (A whole 193 pages of blood sweat and tears)

    Thank you again, and onwards to more learning :)!

    Thank you as always for the in depth feedback!!

    Not sure if you'll see this but i forgot to ask, how do you handle foreshortening of sausage forms?

    Thank you for the clear critique :) I'll keep those points in mind for the next lessons.

    Thank you for the detailed review :)

    I didn't realise that about the rotated boxes :O Thanks for pointing that out! I'll definitely have a go at it again later and see if things have improved.

    Thank you guys for the help! I tried using the same Ys but this time making all points converge which made everything less distorted.

    interesting how the parallel lines distort it so much!

    Oh I see that makes more sense! Thank you for your reply :)

    Ohh I did not know that, thankyou!

    However I'm still a little confused because box 30 also has very little foreshortening in the lines going left/right, but it looks okay? Or is it just that i can't recognise that it looks weird?

The Science of Deciding What You Should Draw

The Science of Deciding What You Should Draw

Right from when students hit the 50% rule early on in Lesson 0, they ask the same question - "What am I supposed to draw?"

It's not magic. We're made to think that when someone just whips off interesting things to draw, that they're gifted in a way that we are not. The problem isn't that we don't have ideas - it's that the ideas we have are so vague, they feel like nothing at all. In this course, we're going to look at how we can explore, pursue, and develop those fuzzy notions into something more concrete.
