Congrats on finishing Lesson 1, however you seem to missing quite a few exercises. While you may be working on a bigger space these lessons ask for pages. Your pages may be larger but several exercises look like they wouldn't fill up a regular sized page.
I'll critique what I can but you'll need those missing pages in order to complete this lesson.
Superimposed Lines: Consistent work but lacking in quanity. More lines of different length will give you the muscle memory you need for future work
Ghosted LInes: Nice work, some wobbling and few missed lines but overall good stuff.
Ghosted Planes: Striaght lines mostly, but a quite a few seem to be too short or too far from their mark. Not much to ananlyze with only one page however.
Table of Ellipses: Good job keeping your ellipses together, but a few seem to be messier than others. Remember to draw through your ellipses two to three times. It's not really a suggestion but more of a demand of all your ellipses.
Ellipses in Planes: Decent work; Try to fill the sides of the plane and remember to draw through your ellipses.
Funnels: Good job drawing through your ellipses. Not too much wobbling on the minor axis so nice work.
Plotted Perspective: Missing this exercise.
Rough perspective: Solid work keeping your vertical and horizontal lines straight. Otherwise some issues lining up the lines with the VP but I think you understood the objective.
Rotated Boxes: Very clean attempt. Somewhat smaller which hinders your ability to picture the boxes in 3D but you have good rotation.
Organic Perspective: This is a hard one. You did a nice job giving depth to the second frame. The biggest issue I see is that the planes of your boxes don't line up well. Remember the Y shape you start with gives you all the lines that the rest will line up with.
Next Steps:
I recommend you do another page of ghosted planes with ghosted ellipses. Draw through your ellipses and try to touch all the sides of the plane.
Please add a page of the Plotted perspective, alongside one of Organic Perspective. These exercises will help you better understand VPs in a 3D space which will help once you move onto the 250 Box Challenge.
thank you so much for your thoughtful feedback, very much appreciated. I'll make sure to do a second page where requested. I did the plotted perspective lesson but looks like there was an upload error. I uploaded it to my sketchbook right now.
the organic perspectives exercise was a mess, but im feeling a lot better about rotating boxes now that im on the 250 box challenge, that video was very helpful.
thanks again!

This is a remarkable little pen. Technically speaking, any brush pen of reasonable quality will do, but I'm especially fond of this one. 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.
