I am having trouble visualizing form intersections. May I draw the interesction lines in a different color?
Just go with it thinking all of this is an exercise, Drawabox doesn't demand you to do an exercise perfectly.
My suggestion would be going through the material until you get it (the concept at the very least).
Although if you are really having trouble with it i can think of an exercise you could do.
Instead of doing full "complex" 3D forms like cubes, pyramids and such, maybe start by doing the intersections of things like planes + ellipse, plane + plane, just like this
And you can't draw them in different colors (at least for the exercise) specially because the lesson also teaches you to use line weight to clarify your overlaps and intersections.
Ultimately i would recommend to not go crazy over it and most importantly do not grind, it will only take up your time.
I'm not sure if another colour would be allowed. Maybe someone else could chime in on that.
Keep in mind that Comfy stated that intersections are not the actual focus of this exercise; they should be an afterthought to placing the overlapping forms in the same space. Intersections can be very confusing and difficult to do, but give it your best shot (if you decide to do it all) and move on.
If you did use a simplified version of intersecting as suggested by Ledvi21 (which might not be recommended in the course as it's not the assigned homework; though it is a valid exercise), remember always to draw through your forms.
Whatever you do, I second Ledvi21: don't grind. Do what the course requires and move on.
Thank you
Here we're getting into the subjective - Gerald Brom is one of my favourite artists (and a pretty fantastic novelist!). That said, if I recommended art books just for the beautiful images contained therein, my list of recommendations would be miles long.
The reason this book is close to my heart is because of its introduction, where Brom goes explains in detail just how he went from being an army brat to one of the most highly respected dark fantasy artists in the world today. I believe that one's work is flavoured by their life's experiences, and discovering the roots from which other artists hail can help give one perspective on their own beginnings, and perhaps their eventual destination as well.
