Hello and congrats on completing lesson one. I'll be taking a look at your submission today. Starting with your superimposed lines these are off to a fine start. You are keeping a clearly defined starting point with all of your wavering at the opposite end. I'm noticing that you are getting quite a bit of wobble in your ghosted lines and planes. https://drawabox.com/lesson/1/9/wobbling This is also quite present in some of the later exercises although I am seeing improvement with your final exercise but I still want to mention this advice here so you can understand what the problem likely is.

This is the important part we need to be focusing on and the real problem I'm seeing:

You're hesitating as you execute the line, rather than drawing with a confident motion. Finally committing to a mark can definitely be quite daunting, but it's integral that you get used to accepting that mistakes do happen. Things go wrong - you can prepare as much as possible (and you should) but the moment your pen touches the page, any opportunity to avoid a mistake has already passed. Now you must commit yourself, push through with confidence, and execute your line. It's also worth remembering: we can still work with a line that is smooth and even, but there's not much that can be done with a wobbly one.

What's most likely happening is that you are worrying about accuracy too much while making your mark and it's causing you to slow down your stroke to compensate which is giving you quite a bit of wobble in your lines. That hesitation because of your concern for accuracy while making your mark is what is reintroducing the wobble into your lines. Try and rely a bit more on the muscle memory you build up while ghosting your mark and almost make your mark without thinking. This will be less accurate at first but will give you consistently smooth and confident linework which is our first priority. Accuracy will come with mileage and can't really be forced.

Your tables of ellipses are coming along pretty good. You are doing a good job drawing through your ellipses and focusing on consistent smooth ellipse shapes. This is carried over nicely into your ellipses in planes. It's great that you aren't overly concerned with accuracy and are instead focused on getting smooth ellipse shapes for the most part. Although accuracy is our end goal it can't really be forced and tends to come with mileage and consistent practice more than anything else. That said I'm seeing a little wobble in some of your ellipse shapes in these exercises. This is likely happening because you are slowing down your stroke for accuracy. Remember to only really worry about accuracy while you are planning your mark. Once you've ghosted your ellipses it's time to just commit to making your ellipses once you put the pen down on the page. Hesitation leads to wobble. Your ellipses in funnels are having some slight issues with tilting off the minor axis as well as the wobbly line issues I mentioned previously. https://drawabox.com/lesson/1/14/notaligned This is something you should always start considering when drawing your ellipses. There is plenty of room for improvement when it comes to your ellipses both in terms of overall consistency of shape and smoothness so make sure you keep practicing these in your warmups as they can take a while to get used to.

The plotted perspective looks good although a few of the vertical legs on your boxes are slanting a bit. It's important to realize in a two point perspective drawing like that all of your vertical box legs should be perpendicular(straight up and down) to the horizon line. Your rough perspective exercises turned out pretty well. You are getting a mix of confident linework here along with some wobble creeping back into some of your lines. https://drawabox.com/lesson/1/9/wobbling This is probably happening because you are more concerned with accuracy now that you are constructing boxes and you are slowing down your stroke to compensate. The more pressing issue I'm seeing here and in the next few exercises is that you are redrawing lines quite often and this is a habit you should try and get out of. Try and stick with the initial line you put down even if it's a bit off. Adding more lines just makes things messier and harder to read. I can see with the blue lines that you are doing a good job extending the lines back on your boxes to check your work. As you can see some of your perspective estimations were quite off but that will become more intuitive with practice. One thing that can help you a bit when doing a one point perspective exercise like this is to realize that all of your horizontal lines should be parallel to the horizon line and all of your verticals should be perpendicular(straight up and down in this case) to the horizon line. This will help you avoid some of the slanting lines you have in your constructions.

Your rotated box exercise was obviously a bit of a struggle. I like that you drew this nice and big as that really helps when dealing with complex spatial problems. You also did a good job drawing through your boxes and keeping your gaps narrow and consistent. Once again though my main issue with your work here is that you are redrawing lines a lot which is making your work much messier and harder to read overall. You need to get more into the habit of just putting down a single confident line and sticking with it. Even if it's slightly off. While the rotations here aren't perfect this was a good effort overall. The more you draw and develop your spatial thinking ability the easier these rotations are to handle. This is a great exercise to come back to after a few lessons to see how much your spatial thinking ability has improved. Your organic perspective exercises are looking pretty good. You seem to be getting comfortable using the ghosting method and drawing from your shoulder for confident linework which is great and this is a good improvement over your previous box exercises but you are still redrawing lines quite a bit. As mentioned before, but I'm going to keep mentioning it because it's important, is to get more into the habit of just putting down a line and leaving it alone. Your box constructions are showing a sense for how box lines converge to vps but you are still getting wonky convergences throughout this exercise so the 250 box challenge will be a great next step for you to keep working on this as well as confident linework.

Overall this was a solid submission that showed a good deal of growth. Your line confidence showed good improvement as you worked through these exercises but you just need to get out of habit of redrawing lines so often. Keep working on those ellipses during your warmups. Otherwise, I think you are understanding most of the concepts these lessons are trying to convey fairly well. I'm going to mark this as complete and good luck with the 250 box challenge. Keep up the good work!
