hello Aanchal!
I will be reviewing your homework. please note I am also a student and still on lesson 2 I may not be the best at giving advices but I will try my best!!
A. Counter Lines
- Organic Arrows
-->I think you did a great job in this exercise. I see perspective in your arrows. i likw the fact that your lines are confident even with the overlappings.
- Organic Forms with Contour Lines
-->Your sausages look good except for few. I also see that some spine is not in the center for few. Another major issue in your attempt is that of ellipses. The twist is not clear in some of the shapes. (i might be overthinking please check it with others as well). 2nd page looks great!
Texture
- Texture Analysis
-->textures look beautiful. I see what you did in the transition - you increased the space (just like what we do in stippling). overall they do the job of conveying texture but I think you didn't use cast shadows.
- Dissection
-->I loved your Dissections the textures go along with the curve surface. You break the silhouettes which is needed. Good exploration!
Construction
- Form Intersection
-->Although, it was hard to watch and figure out whats happening in this exercise, i feel that you understood intersections. I did find a mistake (which is hard to pinpoint here) but by the end of it you are definately in the better position.
- Organic Intersection
--> your shapes look simple and have sense of volume. They also look like they are overlapping and understand how the forms are wrapping. These 2 were main areas of focus for this exercise. I have only one feedback- your shadows are sticking to the form. Apart from that you did a great job!
Next Steps:
overall your homework is great but i would highly suggest you to keep practicing the construction exercise. They are basically the core of further lessons. All the best!!
The recommendation below is an advertisement. Most of the links here are part of Amazon's affiliate program (unless otherwise stated), which helps support this website. It's also more than that - it's a hand-picked recommendation of something I've used myself. If you're interested, here is a full list.
Faber Castell PITT Artist Pens
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.
