#37 - The BEST Introduction To Perspective Ever--And It's FREE!
(You can click through to the pdf there.)
Dear friend,
As you can see, I am experimenting with combining text and images that have nothing to do with each other.
I was constantly struggling to with coming up with illustrations that go with a text. But then I thought, why? The illustrations are there to break the block of text and to give your eye a place to linger. All it has to be is an illustration, any illustration.
So I decided to hand-write my letters and to use that as a place to practice drawing also. I love to draw from reference. Maybe that's all it has to be, you know? Over the past few years, I have been slowly getting myself to over-think less.
Also, I decided to color this one. I had held a poll: line art, line art with hatching, or line art with color? All three got around one third of the votes. So I am trying to see what happens if I try to punch up the art with color a bit.
Color! Oomph! Another problem to solve.
THIS JUST IN!Marshall Vandruff is providing another short course, this time on Heinrich Kley.I think he may be one of the best art teachers alive at the moment and I learned a lot each time I did a course with him. He's retiring soon, so if you are interested in that kind of thing, do consider grabbing this opportunity. It's rather affordable.
