This is the lesson 1 from draw a box with the official feedback from one of the assistants of uncomfortable.

‘‘Hello and congrats on completing lesson one. I'll be taking a look at your submission today. Starting with your superimposed lines these are off to a fine start. You are keeping a clearly defined starting point with all of your wavering at the opposite end. Your ghosted lines and planes turned out well. You are using the ghosting method to good effect to get confident linework with a pretty decent deal of accuracy that will get better and better with practice.Your tables of ellipses are coming along pretty good. You are doing a good job drawing through your ellipses and focusing on consistent smooth ellipse shapes and I can already see improvements from the first to second page. This is carried over nicely into your ellipses in planes. It's great that you aren't overly concerned with accuracy and are instead focused on getting smooth ellipse shapes. Although accuracy is our end goal it can't really be forced and tends to come with mileage and consistent practice more than anything else. Your ellipses in funnels are having some issues with tilting off the minor axis. https://drawabox.com/lesson/1/13/notaligned This is something you should always start considering when drawing your ellipses. Your ellipses are looking good and I'm not seeing any bad habits forming here. Nice work.The plotted perspective looks great, nothing to mention here. Your rough perspectives turned out pretty good. You are getting a mix of confident linework here along with some wobble creeping back into some of your lines. Once again this is probably happening because you are more concerned with accuracy now that you are constructing boxes and you are slowing down your stroke to compensate. You are doing a good job extending the lines back on your boxes to check your work. As you can see some of your perspective estimations were quite off but that will become more intuitive with practice.The rotated box exercise turned out decently. One thing that might have helped you a bit here would have been to draw this a bit bigger. Drawing bigger really helps when dealing with complex spatial problems. You did a good job drawing through your boxes and keeping your gaps fairly consistent as well as keeping up with confident linework. You're not quite nailing your rotations which is perfectly fine given the difficulty of this exercise. This is a great one to come back to after a few lessons to see how much your spatial thinking ability has improved. Your organic perspective exercises are looking pretty good. You seem to be getting comfortable using the ghosting method and drawing from your shoulder for confident linework which is great. Your box constructions are decent for the most part but there are some wonky ones here and there so the 250 box challenge will be a great next step for you.Overall this was a pretty solid submission and your ellipses in particular are coming along very nicely. I think you are understanding most of the concepts these lessons are trying to convey quite well. I'm going to mark this as complete and good luck with the 250 box challenge.‘‘

Finally perspective, something I know a little about. I had fun working on this. I have a video of it on my channel. https://youtu.be/hTR21FCiHSY . . . . . #drawing #drawingtutorial #practice #Drawabox #drawaboxlesson1 #pen #pendrawing #progress #plottedperspective #perspectivedrawing #perspective #youtube #youtuber #youtubers #rickbonilla #arting #artista #artistoninstagram (at Powder Springs, Georgia) https://www.instagram.com/p/BolDELpnIc1/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=xzo4fj7ieq3n

Drawabox, plotted perspective... I went a bit off script on the exercise on my previous attempt, so I reworked it. . . . . #drawing #drawingtutorial #practice #Drawabox #drawaboxlesson1 #pen #pendrawing #progress #perspectivedrawing #perspective #plottedperspective #youtube #youtuber #youtubers #rickbonilla #arting #artista #artistoninstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/BqJnhxCBREY/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=mpruk113o7dy
