Thanks!

I already watched the video, thanks. It was really interesting and clarifying.

I think I'll first practice a bit on the seperate forms, then try the intersections and if that's too hard, do the challenge :)

Thanks for the answer ^^

I have a quick question :)

I did part 1 and 2 of this lesson, but in part 3 you recommend doing the cylinder challenge.

So I was wondering what would be best for me: doing part 3 immediatly and complete the lesson; or take a break from it and do the cylinders first?

Pfew, finally did it. I thought this would never end.

Boxes, boxes, boxes

Thanks for the feedback. I really felt the boxes needed more work and already had given a start to the 250 boxes challenge.

Finished Lesson 1 (again) and here's my homework .

I had a lot of issues doing the ellipses out of my shoulder. I kept going back to drawing out of the elbow. Getting good at 'locking' my wrist though.

The last boxes were really hard, so I feel like I need more work there.

You can critique it in your own time :) I am a patreon as you know, but I understand you are busy.

Hey,

I've been doing lesson 1 and 2, but haven't really found the 'courage' yet to scan and post the homework.

But I do want to say you are doing excellent work! Not only are the lessons very helpful (and amazingly easy to get into), they are just the right level of detail. For beginners, this is such a big deal, because most learning-to-draw-books still have this part where magic happens and they don't explain all the steps.

As an educational scientist, I love how you are building up the programme and scaffolding people into not only gaining skill but also confidence.

Most of all, I admire how you keep this entry level. The fact that you don't charge money, is the main reason I am now donating. (Yay, my first Patreon gift ever!)

It is so important to make art available for those who can't afford education and you are doing amazing work. While in the future, I might invest in the Foundation Group, for now you are still my favourite master to learn from. You subscribe the (moral) principles I hold very nicely.

Sir, I tip my imaginary hat to you.
