Great work! I'm impressed! If you haven't taken any drawing classes at all before, then you are naturally talented and I can tell that you have put a lot of effort and care in your work. Your mark making is confident and your lines and ellipses have a smooth quality and consitent flow. I can tell you have firm and understanding of the concepts that were were taught in each exercise so I believe that you are ready to move on to the next assignments.
Next Steps:
I would suggest working on the rotated boxes exercise and the more you practice the better you will get at it. It is challenging and there are a few places where things where you have drawn lines that are not quite lining up correctly but if you keep practicing, you will work out these errors over time as your skills improve. Keep up the good work and start the 250 box challenge. Good luck! I'm currently halfway through and it is not easy but it is a great learning experience that will improve your skills and knowledge of perspective immensely as you do this drill
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.
