Third week of class thoughts

Here's what I turned in for my 1pt perspective drawing. I meant to get a better quality photo before I turned it in, but hopefully it won't be ruined between this week and getting it back next week :)

I'm happy with it. I agree with Jason that that line could be punched, now that I look at it. I'm not sure how I didn't notice it before, but it's easily fixed so no worries. I am particularly happy with the cabinetry. I think it turned out really well, and that plus the view into the kitchen are my favorite parts visually.

Three weeks in, and we're still drawing cones and boxes. This doesn't really bother me, though. Sure other things are more challenging, but I think foundation work is really good.. like I'm not just saying that, I actually enjoy foundational work and generally think I can always use more of it no matter how much I do.
Anyways, the critique didn't seem like the college "harsh" it was hyped up to be. I mean, the "baby gloves" or whatever Jason said that he put on sort of meant that he said he liked the piece and then went on to say about the same thing for every one, that they got the concept and needed to punch some lines, add some things on walls/floors to break up and define the space, or that they actually didn't do the assignment correctly. But the composition, choice of area, etc. wasn't really discussed.
I'm looking forward to a really good critique. Forget this taking things personally nonsense. Give me the straight forward so I can improve!

Two point perspective will be cool, I guess. I hope I don't get sick of drawing my living room after this assignment, since there's another one to do afterwards. I spent like 10 hours on the last one, so maybe I can speed it up and not compromise quality. We'll see!

Sketchbooks. Mine's looking okay, although something about there being requirements and it being checked for those and graded at the ends makes it harder to approach it for me. I'm trying my hardest to make it comprehensive, though, i'll just take it like the other challenges given. (bring it, grading scale!)
