I looked back over my lesson two exercises and realized that you are absolutely right about the shaky forms.

Here are the results of the last week.

Hopefully I can move on to animals. fingers crossed But I want to get this right.

Ahhh. I guess I never thought of the lay-in as a lay-in of 3D forms. Now it makes sense why we had to do organic forms before getting to this.

Here is my re-re-do. I hope it is better.

You had asked me to do 4 more pages of insects.

What do you think of these?

Yup. Completely misunderstood what you meant by simple.

I did another two pages. What do you think?

I am always surprised how much you can critique our work just by studying the final products.

Anyway, I did these constructions. Do they capture the step I was missing?

I feel like I am getting better. I hope it reflects in the drawing. I leave many thoughts and notes as I draw, so maybe you can see where my mind was during each page :)

Thanks for getting back to me on this. I find that pulling my lines seems to work best for me so I am going to stick with it. I just didn't know if there was a standard way of doing this that I completely missed.

Ellipses Redo

Sorry about that. I completely missed figure 2.9. I will definitely read closer on the next exercises. Ugh...250 boxes. But, but I want to start drawing plants soon(insert whiny sarcastic voice).

Any suggestions about pushing or pulling the pen when drawing lines?
