Lesson 1: Lines, Ellipses and Boxes

I accidentally posted the image. Anyways, this is my first post here! I would appreciate it if you would critique my work!
I've taken a look at your lesson 1. The only things that I could see you could work on is your usage of line weight. Especially in the rotating boxes exercise its very hard to parse specific boxes because all your lines are the same line weight. I would urge you to focus on this when you tackle the box challenge. Anyways congrats and good luck on the 250 box challenge!

Do the ghosted planes exercise as one of 3 other warmups every day.
This is another one of those things that aren't sold through Amazon, so I don't get a commission on it - but it's just too good to leave out. PureRef is a fantastic piece of software that is both Windows and Mac compatible. It's used for collecting reference and compiling them into a moodboard. You can move them around freely, have them automatically arranged, zoom in/out and even scale/flip/rotate images as you please. If needed, you can also add little text notes.
When starting on a project, I'll often open it up and start dragging reference images off the internet onto the board. When I'm done, I'll save out a '.pur' file, which embeds all the images. They can get pretty big, but are way more convenient than hauling around folders full of separate images.
Did I mention you can get it for free? The developer allows you to pay whatever amount you want for it. They recommend $5, but they'll allow you to take it for nothing. Really though, with software this versatile and polished, you really should throw them a few bucks if you pick it up. It's more than worth it.
