If you take a look at box 20 you'll see a set of lines extends to the upper left and another set extends to the upper right. A third set should be extending downwards as well.

You can see this demonstrated in the guide I linked in your critique as well.

Hope that clarifies things.

Thanks Tofu. Yes, I thought you meant downwards, just as I marked them in my original submission. What I couldn't get was that when I extended the lines downwards, the lines seemed to remain parallel more often than the other two sets with less convergence or divergence. I looked through your guide after the 250 boxes but I think I still need to practise a lot more before I really get to grips with what is going on in terms of the effects of foreshortening on lines, and how the different lines relate to one another and how one set of lines impacts on another set of lines.

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.
