Hello!

I've been studying Drawabox for quite some time (since 2024 really), and even after some dificultys of trying to understand things and being busy with alot of stuff, i managed to be a lot more patient with myself and devote as much of my time to do it!, im happy to get as far as i am right now ( something i didnt think i could be capable of)

Thank you, and hope to improve more in the future :)

I can see your lines in the ghosted lines exercise are a bit wobbly, maybe you didn't use your whole arm to draw them. In the rough perspective exercise, try to keep the width lines parallel and to the horizon and height lines perpendicular to the horizon. I think you also forgot to add lineweight to the organic perspective exercise. Good job on completing lesson 1!

Thank you!, In regards to what you said, The ghosted lines exercise, i was not accustomed to drawing with my whole arm back then,so if need be to redo it and send another picture, then i can do so no problem.

I can also redo the rough perspective and organic perspective for the lineweight aswell.

All to say, thank you!. I've been doing drawabox for a year by now and im happy with my progress on the course so far! Thank you for the response, i appreciate the help, and also apreciate the critique!, looking foward to progress even more on the course :)

Rapid Viz

Rapid Viz

Rapid Viz is a book after mine own heart, and exists very much in the same spirit of the concepts that inspired Drawabox. It's all about getting your ideas down on the page, doing so quickly and clearly, so as to communicate them to others. These skills are not only critical in design, but also in the myriad of technical and STEM fields that can really benefit from having someone who can facilitate getting one person's idea across to another.

Where Drawabox focuses on developing underlying spatial thinking skills to help facilitate that kind of communication, Rapid Viz's quick and dirty approach can help students loosen up and really move past the irrelevant matters of being "perfect" or "correct", and focus instead on getting your ideas from your brain, onto the page, and into someone else's brain as efficiently as possible.
