Practice.

I’ve started on the book exercises for “Drawing On The Right Side Of The Brain”. The second exercise is to draw someone from memory, which is causing too much anxiety for the night, so I’ll continue with it tomorrow.

Has anyone, artist or non, gone through this book? Thoughts?

  4. fajita said: The title is familiar. Can’t remember if we had to buy it for an art class I took at the community college with my sister or if they just gave us handouts photocopied from it.
  5. eatsleepmoresleep answered: yeah I’ve gone through this book. I’ve got another one I like a little more, but this one still gets the job done.
  6. nussbaum answered: Excellent exercises for getting you to open up your brain to see and draw differently. It’s a great book and I love it…

  16. ben answered: I had to buy that book for a class during freshman year. I ended up dropping the class, but I’m skeptical of the book after skimming over it.
