Hello! I just finished the lesson. I would like someone to give critique to my work please! Thank you! :)

I did struggle the most with the Ellipses. In the Organic Perspective, I did use my wrist on the very small boxes since I overshoot them when using my shoulder. I'll keep on practicing these.

Hello, you did great! Your super imposed lines looked very clean, and your ghosted lines looked really nice. You do have a little bit of archs on some of the ghosted planes but other then that they look really good. Even though you said you had trouble on your ellipses they came out good. You did have some overlapping in the table but with practice, drawing ellipses will come much easier. The funnels looked good too! Your rough and plotted respective looked very nice too. Your rotated boxes and organic perspective all came out nice! So good job :) I'm gonna pass you and let you move on to the 250 box challenge.

Next Steps:

Next start the 250 box challenge. A recommendation I give is definitely do warm-ups when starting each session of the 250 box challenge. This will help you, even with trying to use your shoulder, since you did say you were using your wrist a bit. You can use lesson 1 exercises as a warm up, I sugget doing the ghosted lines and planes, but feel free to choose the others :) Keep up the good work!

The Science of Deciding What You Should Draw

The Science of Deciding What You Should Draw

Right from when students hit the 50% rule early on in Lesson 0, they ask the same question - "What am I supposed to draw?"

It's not magic. We're made to think that when someone just whips off interesting things to draw, that they're gifted in a way that we are not. The problem isn't that we don't have ideas - it's that the ideas we have are so vague, they feel like nothing at all. In this course, we're going to look at how we can explore, pursue, and develop those fuzzy notions into something more concrete.
