That took forever, and took me 2 entire pens.
Hi, gonna try my hand at giving you a critique for this lesson.
On you arrow ribbons you have nice shading and most of them get smaller as they go back in space. I only saw a couple where they did not seem to so that. Good job on those.
The organic forms with countour elpses and curves look really nice. You seem to have really understood that concept and you did really well on making them feel like they have mass.
Your texture excercises look amazing especially when looking at your organic form textures. That second page was amazing . You did very good at making your textures look accurate.
The form intersection pages are goof too. I can see that you aretaking your time to lay down confident lines. Great job.
The organic intersection look good , again you really showed the objects habing mass, which is great . Toy did a good job on the shadows.
Overall, Good job.!
Next Steps:
I think you can move on to the next step.
Thank you for your critique.
Rapid Viz is a book after mine own heart, and exists very much in the same spirit of the concepts that inspired Drawabox. It's all about getting your ideas down on the page, doing so quickly and clearly, so as to communicate them to others. These skills are not only critical in design, but also in the myriad of technical and STEM fields that can really benefit from having someone who can facilitate getting one person's idea across to another.
Where Drawabox focuses on developing underlying spatial thinking skills to help facilitate that kind of communication, Rapid Viz's quick and dirty approach can help students loosen up and really move past the irrelevant matters of being "perfect" or "correct", and focus instead on getting your ideas from your brain, onto the page, and into someone else's brain as efficiently as possible.
