Hello again~

So, first things first, this is not, in fact, the complete ellipse section- you're missing the funnels exercise. Anyway, my main recommendation is to up your confidence a little bit. It's perfectly fine for your ellipses to be inaccurate (i.e. miss the bounds of the frame), so long as it's in pursuit of confidence. This is especially the case in the ellipses in planes exercise, where priority #1 is a smooth, rounded ellipses, and priority #2, only to be thought of once priority #1 is taken care of, is to hit all 4 sides of the plane. Nonetheless, this is a solid attempt, so you're clear to move on, so long as you remember this.

thanks for the feedback! I'll keep that in mind, accuracy can come later. Even if I cross the plane, as long as I hit the 4 sides and hit them with confidence then I'm good

Cottonwood Arts Sketchbooks

These are my favourite sketchbooks, hands down. Move aside Moleskine, you overpriced gimmick. These sketchbooks are made by entertainment industry professionals down in Los Angeles, with concept artists in mind. They have a wide variety of sketchbooks, such as toned sketchbooks that let you work both towards light and towards dark values, as well as books where every second sheet is a semitransparent vellum.
