Still the best advice around, Michael. Love your thumbnail sketches, too.
Nice message! The other subject that sharpens our drawing skills is boats: they have compound curves like people; they vary in proportions, like everything else, and they vary in their features such as cabin shapes, hull shapes (like body shapes), and bow shapes (dictated by the seas they are built for). Their movement level is between trees and people and they maintain their shape in motion, unlike the other two. I suppose cars would also be good, for the same reasons.
Thanks, Violetta and Helen!
A concise and helpful reminder- thank you!
I'll sometimes tell aspiring painters that developing their drawing skills will improve their painting, but some of them don't seem to want to hear that.
So true! They think that painting has nothing to do with that unpleasant, colorless task of drawing.
