The decision to include or omit information (in this case the way light casts over form) should be a result of mastery of information rather than ignorance of it.David Hohnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13471321982248723264noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2994212447742147794.post-1333295162079359982010-06-12T12:22:48.303-07:002010-06-12T12:22:48.303-07:00wait, just thought of a better way of saying it:
...wait, just thought of a better way of saying it: <br /><br />The exercise shouldn't be about how to draw better technically, but should be how to interpret more interestingly.Lee White Illustrationhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14749617833440682599noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2994212447742147794.post-61053048793530762092010-06-12T12:00:20.923-07:002010-06-12T12:00:20.923-07:00hmmm, i see what you mean, but I'm not sure I ...hmmm, i see what you mean, but I'm not sure I agree with it. <br /><br />Could doing a purely technical exercise lead to over modeling (or overdrawing) an image that doesn't need it due to fact that technique in your brain at the time (and the fact that you do it well). It seems the more technique that's involved (more information shown in the image) the less mystery the image has. What do you think? <br /><br />How bout' an exercise that tests how little (in terms of mark making) you need to communicate an idea effectively? does that sound crazy? not even sure what I'm talking about : )Lee White Illustrationhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14749617833440682599noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2994212447742147794.post-49348650332304974122010-06-12T11:10:08.380-07:002010-06-12T11:10:08.380-07:00Good eye!

It is definitely worth doing a purely technical exercise like this so that the successes (and errors) are at the top of your mind when doing a real project.David Hohnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13471321982248723264noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2994212447742147794.post-55295822879338843482010-06-12T09:02:19.154-07:002010-06-12T09:02:19.154-07:00nice! cheek on the short side should be in half to...nice! cheek on the short side should be in half tone, not shadow though.
