Hi! Good job on your Lesson 3 homework.

I will take care of reviewing it and giving you directions.

Arrows: These look pretty good. The depth, fold and line weight application look correct.

No major errors here.

Branches: Your branches look generally solid. The stroke doesn't look broken which helps everything look smooth.

The ellipses are well aligned to their axis. Plus I notice that they don't change degree with respect to their position.

In other words, your ellipses should look fatter or thinner according to their orientation to the viewer.

In the first step of the exercise instructions you can read about this, the image there also shows it: https://drawabox.com/lesson/3/2/exercisebranches

Leaves: I like how the leaves look quite organic. The folds are fluid and the details adhere well to the overall construction.

The way you used shadows to distinguish the planes also looks adequate.

Plant drawings: It's nice that all the drawings look pretty clean. All the objects seem to follow their flow lines and the overall construction is good.

I see that in some cases you drew your ellipses with a single stroke.

Throughout Drawabox, you are asked to draw over your ellipses once or twice to build up accuracy.

On the Aloe Vera plant, it would have been best not to trim the leaves where they touch the pot.

When working with constructive drawing, you want everything to look very structured and solid. It would have been more appropriate to draw them complete as in the other plants, even if they are beyond the pot.

Conclusion: Overall, it looks like you followed the method as well as possible.

I will leave no homework and mark your lesson as complete!

The Science of Deciding What You Should Draw

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.
