Hie Tawny Owl,
I hope you are doing good. I will try my best to critique your work.
Arrows: Good job on drawing the arrows. The main focus of the assignment is seen from your work. The Arrows are shortening and getting bigger as the distance gets less. I see you tried different type of bends giving it the 3D look. The lines also look fairly confident.
Sausage Shapes:: Your sausage shapes are fairly decent. Your work is technically correct. I would suggest for future drawings try to add variations on the size of the ellipses drawn remembering those are the viewpoints on how a viewer would see a circle. More of the circle meaning more turn towards/ opposite to the viewer. We can try to exegarate this. Currently they dont have lot of variations. Same with Organic forms with contour lines. Try to give them more of a curve for future practice.
Texture Analysis: Perfect. loving it.
Disections: Both the dissections are amazing. Great details and good control over contrast and shadows and not getting into drawing random lines or 'sketching'. They are technically correct. One improvement i would like to suggest you here would be to keep in mind or imagine how the sausage shape is moving in the space. Due to this the texture on top of it would also flow or change. I can see that in few spaces but its not much. Example: Cucumber. Knowinging that the small circle is the bottom part ( pole ) of the cucumber then the black strips would end & start on that circle on all the sides. In your case it goes besides it if that makes sense? You can notice that in multiple disections as the shapes don't go around the shape as the shape change. Also do not be afraid to let that texture come outside of the border of the sausage shape. Overall the texture looks really good.
Form Intersection: They do feel like they belong to same space. This seems to be on right track.
Organic Intersection: Great job here as well. The forms look on top of each other. The cast shadow also seem consistent. One thing you can do is exagerate few of the forms as flat as if there's weight put on top of water balloons. Regardless the contour also seem correct. Good Job here as welll.
Next Steps:
You can move on to Lesson 3.
Thank you Heiwa for the critique!
This is a remarkable little pen. I'm especially fond of this one for sketching and playing around with, and it's what I used for the notorious "Mr. Monkey Business" video from Lesson 0. It's incredibly difficult to draw with (especially at first) due to how much your stroke varies based on how much pressure you apply, and how you use it - but at the same time despite this frustration, it's also incredibly fun.
Moreover, due to the challenge of its use, it teaches you a lot about the nuances of one's stroke. These are the kinds of skills that one can carry over to standard felt tip pens, as well as to digital media. Really great for doodling and just enjoying yourself.
I would not recommend this for Drawabox - we use brush pens for filling in shadow shapes, and you do not need a pen this fancy for that. If you do purchase it, save it for drawing outside of the course.
