Hello and congrats on completing lesson one. I'll be taking a look at your submission today. Your superimposed lines are off to a decent start. You are keeping a clearly defined start point and keeping all of the tapering to the opposite end. You are doing a good job at trying to get a smooth confident line with a swift stroke instead of slowly drawing a wobbly line. Your ghosted lines and planes are coming along pretty good as well. You seem to be using the ghosting to good effect and are achieving some confident linework. I am noticing a bit of arcing on some of your lines that you might want to look out for. https://drawabox.com/lesson/1/9/arc

I seeing a good amount of improvement as you are working through your table of ellispes exercise. You are doing a great job drawing through all of your ellipses and while I think some of your ellipse shapes were a bit lumpy on the first page I'm noticing a higher consistency of smooth shapes as you worked through these exercises. Good job. This is carried over very nicely into your ellipses in planes. I like that you are more focused on getting a smooth ellipse shape rather than focusing on accuracy which usually results in a deformed ellipse. Accuracy is the ultimate goal but being able to nail a smooth confident ellipse shape consistently is your first step towards that. You are having some issues with your ellipses in funnels not aligning to the minor axis that you should be aware of. https://drawabox.com/lesson/1/13/notaligned You are also not drawing through all of the ellipses you did for this exercise. Remember that you are supposed to draw through EVERY single ellipse you do during these lessons without exception.

Plotted perspective looks good nothing to mention here. Your rough perspective exercises are having some more issues with arcing lines. This tends to happens with students a lot with this exercise as they tend to be more focused on thinking about the spatial issues they are facing so they either skip steps in the ghosting method or revert to drawing from the wrist. So just a reminder to always ghost your lines and to draw from the shoulder with confidence. Even on short lines. You did a good job extending the lines back on your boxes to check your work. As you can see some of your perspective estimations were quite off but that will get better with practice.

Your rotated box exercise is a pretty good attempt. Once again I think your line quality is suffering quite a bit during this exercise for the same reasons I mentioned above with your rough perspective boxes. You are also having a tendency to redraw lines which if you look at the picture really isn't helping things. All it is really doing is making the image sloppier and more confusing. You are better off sticking with one confidently drawn line that is slightly wrong. You did a good job drawing through your boxes and keeping your gaps narrow and consistent here and you also handled some of the tougher rotations pretty well. There are a few cases where you aren't rotating the boxes enough but that is a pretty common problem with this exercise. https://drawabox.com/lesson/1/16/notrotating Finally, your organic box exercise feels a tad rushed. A lot of these lines are very wobbly and don't seem like you ghosted them or that you are drawing from your wrist. Some of your boxes are having some bad convergence problems but you will get a lot of practice with that during the 250 box challenge.

Overall this was a decent submission. You showed a good amount of growth in some of the exercises. particularly your ellipses, but I feel like you let your line quality go way down for the last 4 exercises. I think you are understanding most of the concepts these lessons are trying to teach but you just need to be more mindful about creating a habit of putting down smooth confident linework. This is why you practice using the ghosting method and drawing from the shoulder. I'm going to mark this as complete and good luck with the 250 box challenge.
