Lesson 1: Lines, Ellipses and Boxes
12:25 AM, Monday July 11th 2022
Pg 1 and 2 of the ghosted planes and Pg 2 of organic perspective got cutoff by the scanner but everything else, even the stuff against the edges, made it in.
Hi Goodmoring/Goodnight i would like to say Congratulations on finishing the Lesson 1.
1.Superimposed Lines
Most of the line are not confident, some of them have wobbles and archs make sure be confident and use your shoulder. The archs it can be fixed by trying to arch consciously to the opposite direction and draw faster with confident motion and keep that fast in mind
Make sure have warms ups.
You did great on not fraying on the starting lines
2.Ghosted Lines
Your line here have wobbles
overshooting which is not bad great job on that
Some are undershotting remember overshooting is fine and undershooting is not.
Great job on hitting the start dot.
Keep this on your warp up and you'll improve over time.
3.Ghosted Planes
You drew lines here better than before. Some are still wobbles. You did great hitting most of it on start dot to end dot.
You have no repeated lines great job on that
4.Tables of Ellipses
You drew your ellipses confidently. A bit deformed at times, and some wobblers but that will get better with more practice over time.
Most of it are hitting the 4 corner great job on that and great job on accuracy
5.Ellipses in Planes
Same as tables of ellipeses.
Except you are not snuggling the circle to each others
And still doing great job on accuracy
6.Funnels
Great work being confident on circle you did great job.
Same as ellipses in place. Some of the Ellipses are not snuggling with each other.
7.Plotted Perspective
Great work on this. You understand the assignment well.
8.Rough Perspective
Some of the lines are bit wobbles but the front of box are great
You did great job Hitting the VP of some lines
And plotting the front of the boxes
9.Rotated Boxes
Some lines are bit wobbles but it's still good
You did Great on the boxes. Some boxes
The gaps of the boxes are not consistent but mostly those gaps are great.
10.Organic Perspective
Your lines here are confident,
This is a very difficult exercise at this stage, so it was to be expected. You will have a lot more opportunity to practice this during the 250 Box Challenge.
But what you should have done is create the smaller box to far and then draw a bigger box than previous box so it will have a illusion that the boxes are rotating and far
Again congratulations on finishing the lesson one you did great overall you really put a effort on it great job.
Next Steps:
YOU ARE READY TO MOVE TO THE 250 BOXES CHALLENGE GOODLUCK.
These are what I use when doing these exercises. They usually run somewhere in the middle of the price/quality range, and are often sold in sets of different line weights - remember that for the Drawabox lessons, we only really use the 0.5s, so try and find sets that sell only one size.
Alternatively, if at all possible, going to an art supply store and buying the pens in person is often better because they'll generally sell them individually and allow you to test them out before you buy (to weed out any duds).
