Lesson 1: Lines, Ellipses and Boxes
6:19 PM, Tuesday November 16th 2021
Here's lesson 1, I hope having Ghosted Planes and Ellipses in Planes is not bad, if so, I'll pay more attention next time.
Thanks for your attention.
Hi Pgcools i will be reviewing your homework!
Lines: it looks great. but there's some issues, your ghosted lines seems pretty nice however some of them are wobbly or arched. i will recommend you to make sure you're drawing from the shoulder and to try to arch consciously in the opposite direction to prevent arching lines. i also notice that some of your lines in the ghosted lines exercise are not touching both ends, your lines should touch the starting dot, take the time to place your pen carefully at the begining of each lines.
Ellipses: good job with your ellipses they look confident, are drawn through, they're not overlapping so much on the ellipses table exercise and your funnels are pretty great you got that!
Boxes: i have not much to say about your boxes they're pretty great i would just advise you not to be afraid of making things cluttered in your practice, i think you could have fit more boxes and make them overlap more in the organic perspective exercise.
Next Steps:
move on to the 250 boxes challenge! and don't forget to apply the 50% rule!
These are what I use when doing these exercises. They usually run somewhere in the middle of the price/quality range, and are often sold in sets of different line weights - remember that for the Drawabox lessons, we only really use the 0.5s, so try and find sets that sell only one size.
Alternatively, if at all possible, going to an art supply store and buying the pens in person is often better because they'll generally sell them individually and allow you to test them out before you buy (to weed out any duds).
