Kunstgrundlagen für Anfänger:innen – Linie, Form und Schattierung

Thank you for your patience! Ok, so overall nice start.  Let's start with your forms. Overall pretty good start.  Your boxes are mostly well structured, the sketches with the guides to the vanishing points and horizon line however are better executed. So, continue to practice with guidelines here.  If you want to try drawing the boxes without the guides, place a point on the page and try to draw as if your pencil is running along an invisible wire to that point.   Your cylinders are actually pretty good for the most part  Just be mindful of where your vanishing points are.  What I'm seeing in a couple of your sketches is you're trying to 'correct' the position of the cylinders face to what you think it should look like relative to where you've place your vanishing points.  When vanishing points  (VPs) are brought closer and closer together, they will naturally start to create distorted shapes and forms.  Everything starts to compress together when there is a smaller gap between the VP's. If we stretch this gap out to have our VPs further away from each other the less distortion takes place, and the more 'normal' our cylinder will look. This is a common mistake we make because that level of distortion is outside of our range of vision, so we naturally think it looks wrong when we draw it on the page.  So, just keep tabs on your VP's. For your ball and eggs shapes, do more development with the cross contours and draw them all around the form. You've done it for a couple of the bean shapes which is good, but practice it up with your balls also.  Think of this as drawing a wireframe, the more we do it, the more we start to understand how to represent 3-dimensions on a flat 2D surface.  With your shape and line exercises, pretty good overall.  Try to work on the spacing a little more with your lines and look to be a little more equidistant. You don't always have to get the lines down in one stroke, so feel free to lightly build the lines and shapes up gradually. Your circles and elipses need a little more practice. Make sure you're drawing from your shoulder and not your wrist.  Drawing from the wrist is usually where people struggle with circles. Wrists have significantly more limited circular movement than the shoulder, so remember to move your arm from your shoulder for your circles and curves, think like a conductor in an orchestra.  Again, you can always lightly build up the circles as opposed to trying to get them done in one stroke.   And finally your value studies, pretty nice overall, just watch out for leaving gaps in your gradient transitions , your last two gradient boxes are exactly what to aim for.  Overall really nice start here! Keep this up! Let me know if you have any questions! :)

Hi Landy, thank you for posting and apologies for the delay in getting you feedback.  I will have time tomorrow to look over everything you've done and get you feedback then. Appreciate your patience.

all exercises i did. I made it all today but i'm assuming this should be an exercise to do and redo to get the hang of it. I struggle a lot with the tubes :']
