Hi Uncomfortable. I have a few questions with this lesson. What do you mean by 2 pages of lay-ins? Are the lay-ins to be done like your demos? i.e. in the pitcher plant you had 6 different drawings each detains the different stages. If not can you give an example? For the 8 pages of plants are we to use images of any 8 plants of our choosing or do we use the 3 examples given? Can you give an example of the study diagrams and notes? Looking at the homework submissions, I am not noticing a consistency. Would be great if you can give an example.

Thanks.

Hi Uncomfortable,

Sorry I took so long to complete the one page with organic forms (https://www.dropbox.com/s/3p57y75bqzexce7/organicformcontours1.pdf?dl=0)

This exercise is very difficult and while I keep practicing ellipses and circles, I seem not to get the hang of this exercise. Nevertheless, I decided to submit this attempt.

Cheers,

H.

Thanks. In the future I'll try bigger cylinders. It's probably a bit cheating as found smaller cylinders easier. BTW what do u mean by drawing presets? I didn't follow any guide nor any preset.

Hi Uncomfortable. I finally managed to complete the second lesson ( https://www.dropbox.com/s/i1s8o4pt9fk5lty/DrawaboxLesson2.pdf?dl=0). I did this one twice. The first time I got stuck at the intersections and didn't do anything for a month (got too busy with other things). Then decided to redo and spent a month doing the first lesson and some more practice before redoing lesson 2. Got stuck at intersections but after the 250 cylinders I pushed through it. This one took a lot of time, but I happy with it. I know I need to do a lot of practice and every time before drawing I've started doing warm ups. I personally enjoyed the organic forms and organic intersections the most. Thanks.

So I did the 250 cylinder challenge ( https://www.dropbox.com/s/22wqz3uez0fz16i/250CylinderChallenge.pdf?dl=0) . My take from this is that I need to do more ellipses. Used this approach than the box approach as I kept getting confused by all the extra lines and this method looked cleaner.

Season's greetings to you and your family! I finally completed the 250 box challenge ( http://imgur.com/a/v2W4v) ... took me a month! I've seen a lot of improvemwnt coming to the end (I'm quite ashamed at the early few) ... but I feel like I should do more. This could be since I didn't draw as frequently as I should. I'll draw a couple more boxes (not to submit) before moving to lesson 2. Apologies for the quality of the photos. When I get back to work I can scan them. Cheers,
