Starting with your arrows, you're doing a great job of drawing these with a great deal of confidence, which helps immensely in conveying the sense of fluidity with which they move through the world. This carries over nicely into your leaves, where you're capturing not only how they sit statically in 3D space, but also how they move through the space they occupy.

When it comes to adding edge detail however, you run into two main issues:

• You're quite prone to zigzagging your edge detail, allowing it to pass back and forth across the existing edge rather than building it up with individual marks. This results in a very weak relationship between the phases of construction, which in turn impedes the solidity of those earlier stages from carrying forward as we build up more complexity. Remember - the process is not to redraw the entirety of your leaf at every stage, but rather to build upon the existing structure in 3D space, one bit at a time.

• The other point is that you appear to change how much time/effort you put into each stroke based on how many you have to draw. For example, if you only have a few bumps to add for a leaf's edge detail, you'll individually give them more of your time. But when you have a ton to add, you tend to be pretty sloppy with each individual one. I actually talk about this tendency in the purpose section of the ghosted planes exercise. I recommend you give that a read.

Continuing onto your branches, you've done this one well for the most part. There are however a few things that come up here and there, rather than being present across the board:

• Remember that as shown here each edge segment starts at an ellipse. You have a tendency to start it further along, which minimizes the overlap between them.

• Take a bit more care in planning out your ellipse before you execute it, to ensure that the alignment actually follows your minor axis.

Moving onto your plant constructions, here your work is actually quite well done. I'm very pleased to see the heavy focus on confident linework and smooth executions. You're drawing all your leaves/petals in their entirety (even when they overlap one another) which is great, and you're capturing a great sense of fluidity throughout your constructions.

I have just a couple of points to call out:

• Here and here you've definitely confused the detail phase for decoration, and ended up focusing more on form shading (which as explained here should not play a role in our drawings for this course) rather than the textural principles from Lesson 2.

• Here I can see you going back over your lines - not to add edge detail or to add line weight (which as explained here should be concentrated at the localized areas where the overlaps between forms occur, in order to clarify how those overlaps behave), but just to arbitrarily reinforce existing lines.

Now, I'll leave you to address the issues in your leaves exercise on your own. They are notable, but you should have all you need to fix them in your warmups. I'll go ahead and mark this lesson as complete.
