Rae's Cave Painting - 0 views

    Linked to my Deviantart upload of the cave-thing I showed in class
  •  
    You're right - Wal-Mart did royally screw it up. But - in that screwing up may have made it even more sinister than you had planned. Another thing - when I was looking at it in class - for some reason I was viewing it as the light being on the right side - whereas your intended orientation locates that light on top. Have you looked at it in different orientations? If so - how do those orientations affect your judgment or interpretation of the work?

      Elements of style, composition, anatomy, and even fantasy. THIS is what a sketchbook should look like!

      I agree - this is what a sketchbook should look like. He's building a catalog - a library of images, ideas. There's a hand, there's a foot - it's all there without a lot of editing. So - he's just allowing these things to happen. He's allowing this growth to occur probably before he can label it this or that. By the way - judging from the color of the paper and the rounded corners - he is undoubtedly drawing in a Moleskine®
