Hello there!
This is my first time giving feedback here, so forgive me if this is lacking ^^;. One thing I can point out is I do notice quite a bit of wobbling and less so arcing. The wobbling is more pronounced with your ellipses. I noticed your ellipses fit pretty neatly in the boxes/funnels so perhaps you are prioritizing accuracy over confidence. Practice more with confidence and commitment with the ghosting technique as well before executing. it is better to see confident lines over wobbly lines fitting neatly inside boxes. your lines and ellipses look more confident in the ghosted planes assignment which is great.
Good job starting at the same point with the superimposed lines!
great job with the plotted perspective exercise!
with the rotating boxes exercise, this was a challenging one...great job getting through this one! I do notice that you did not rotate the boxes enough relative to each other so instead perceiving a spherical shape the results from each box rotating relative to the one before it, it looks almost flattened on one plane bc the box after is sharing the same vanishing point as the one prior to it...if that makes sense...
Next Steps:
Good job completing all the homework! Priority wise I suggest to practice more drawing from the shoulder utilizing the ghosting technique and with a good committed, pace to get more confident smooth lines.
I would suggest trying the funnel/ellipses exercises over again, since you seemed to do much better with the ghosted planes.

Thank you so much for your critique! I do lack a lot of confidence and the rotated boxes were the exercise where I felt the most discomfort... I will practice that now more on the 250 boxes :)
Thank you again!

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.
