Lesson 1: Lines, Ellipses and Boxes
5:36 PM, Friday November 25th 2022
Finally done and I believe everything is in the right order. Thank you for the feedback!
Hey there! I will be looking over your homework today ^^ Congrats on making it through the first lesson :>
I will be pointing out what I think you did well before explaining where I believe you have room to improve. If needed, I will ask you to do some revisions before sending you on your way.
Lines: I think you're doing a good job with the lines. You're aiming to place one confident line, bringing it from Point A to Point B. Fraying in the first assignment is normal to this degree and you'll improve on it if you decide to incorporate this assignment in your warm-ups, but I think this is totally fine. Throughout the lessons you also seem to be improving.
Ellipses: Your ellipses are looking good as well! Confident and smooth. One thing I noticed is that you seem to have trouble reaching all of the borders in the Table of Ellipses assignment. The assignment is to fit all the ellipses neatly within their respective boxes, also neatly against each other. You tend to have several openings here and there. I think you're improving by the Ellipses in Planes assignment, but you might want to keep an eye on it!
Boxes: Your boxes look good as well! Your lines are confident and smooth most of the time. The rest is just a matter of exercise so I wouldn't bother worrying about it. Just keep working on these things in your 15 minute warm ups and you'll be good to go!
This should be all, I don't think there's anything I could ask any revisions for, good job! You can head onto the 250 Box Challenge. Wishing you lots of luck and patience!
Also, your nail polish looks amazing!
Next Steps:
Head onto the 250 Box Challenge!
Like the Staedtlers, these also come in a set of multiple weights - the ones we use are F. One useful thing in these sets however (if you can't find the pens individually) is that some of the sets come with a brush pen (the B size). These can be helpful in filling out big black areas.
Still, I'd recommend buying these in person if you can, at a proper art supply store. They'll generally let you buy them individually, and also test them out beforehand to weed out any duds.
