Hello, I will be critiquing your lesson 1 work
Lines
-Starting off with superimposed lines you kept them very smooth and confident. You also did well with keeping the wavering to one side which will likely disappear as you get more practice.
-Ghosted lines are starting off nice as well and you kept a consistent trajectory with them even if they missed the end point. The ghosted planes are similar to these and you also committed to your lines nicely here.
Ellipses
-Tables of ellipses are looking tidy and confident rather than rushed. It's also great to see that you kept them well rounded and symmetrical which should always be the goal.
-Moving on to ellipses in planes, I can see that these are a bit uneven. You might be thinking that you have to modify the ellipse to touch all contact points of the plane, but instead you should only change the width and what position the ellipse is in. Otherwise, the linwork looks very confident here.
-Funnels are looking better and it seems that you kept the shapes consistent and snug inside of the boundaries. Some of the ellipses are a bit misaligned, but I believe you won't troubles with this as long as you practice
Boxes
-Rough perspective is turning out nice, but I do see that the estimations for the vanishing points are a bit off. This should defintely improve with practice.
-The rotated boxes are looking great, however I recommend that you give yourself more space to draw and ghost the marks so it is easier to place and think about the roation of the boxes
-In the organic perspective you gave a good attempt at the perspective of the boxes, but there is still some room for improvement. Aything in this box section that may have issues with will be mentioned in the 250 Box Challenge.
I will mark your lesson as complete and you can move on :)

It's also more than that - it's a hand-picked recommendation of something I've used myself. If you're interested, here is a full list.
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.
