Organic Arrows
Your arrows are smooth & flow through space almost well but sometimes their edges are not overlapping each other. Make sure you overlap them when doing them in your warm ups.
I see that you've done lineweight near the curves, good work. Just don't slowly trace the previous mark as that would result in wobbly lines.
Leaves
Your leaves are drawn confidently & follows the flow line most of the time. Also good work on folded leaves, you can work on improving where you apply lineweight but overall nice work.
Branches
Your branches have ellipses perpendicular to their minor axis. You'll have much easier time on these branches if you place an ellipse where the flow line have extreme or sudden curves.
The fork on these branches are not following the instructions, see https://drawabox.com/lesson/3/2/forking
Plants
Your plant drawings are really good.
Sometimes parts of plants are not enclosed in it's planned ellipse, it's a decision you've to make either make a new ellipse if you can't achieve your goals with the previous one or change your plant to meet the end of planned ellipse.
Good work on petals of these flowers, they've nice flow line just like your leaves.
Shadow casting done on the plants are kept to minimum, so they don't over shadow the construction themselves, good work.
Overall you've follow the lesson instructions for most part but it seems you misread the homework assignment as it is 8 filled pages of plant drawings rather than 8 plant drawings.
Next Steps:
- 4 filled pages of plant drawing(you can include https://i.imgur.com/i81Tng6.jpeg page here if you decide you to fill it with one more plant), if you add some branches with forks in some of those plants.
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.
