Awesome, I appreciate the critique! And I'm actually incredibly relieved that you recommend I turn the paper to whatever is comfortable when challenging myself with a topic. I didn't start getting frustrated with my boxes until I forced myself to keep the paper straight. Again, thanks.

Here are my boxes.

I was about halfway through the challenge at work when a coworker recommended that I keep the paper straight and at the same angle instead of rotating it so much. (My best lines come from pulling diagonally from the left, so I would rotate the paper so I could use that stroke for every line.)

For the rest of the challenge I kept the paper straight, which made it even more challenging. Do you think I should continue to draw with a straight paper, or does it not matter for now?
