Thank you for your time and your feedback, it really help me to notice things I haven’t noticed, and spot places to improve .

I also appreciate that you included images of my mistakes like in the cast shadows in the organic intersections exercise .

Here are the images I was missing, i thing I deleted them without noticing when I was trying to organize the images I was going to upload .

This post includes some uploaded images. They may be linked in the text, but can also be viewed as an album by clicking here.

Everything appears to be in order! And the same feedback I provided for your texture section does still apply here. I'll go ahead and mark this lesson as complete.

Edit: I just saw that you submitted your lesson 2 work again, before I got around to addressing your revisions. That was not necessary, and so you'll want to cancel that submission so you can get your credit back.

Next Steps:

Feel free to move onto Lesson 3.

This critique marks this lesson as complete.

Remember that when you agree with something another user has written, you are putting your own reputation behind it.

Consider the following:

  • If it's homework feedback, does it address each section of the lesson/challenge, or only briefly touch upon one or two exercises?
  • Does it provide clearly defined next steps for the student to follow?
  • Have you read through it thoroughly, or are you simply agreeing so the student earns a superficial badge?
  • Replies you agree with will be visible in your sketchbook

Agreeing blindly just to be nice is a good way to get your permissions associated with this function revoked, so make sure that you genuinely feel that the response is beneficial to the student.

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.
