Career, Romance, dnd Family "Block it out as though you were using a saw or hatchet, then reduce the blocking to the separate objects followed by blocking in the shadows." "Connect all shadows if possible. That holds all the per- formers together, and it will not have the effect of several play- ing without a leader." "D-o-g spells dog, no matter if it is a white dog, a black dog, a yellow dog, or even a green dog, a large dog, a small dog, or no dog." "Half close your eyes and then see the important things to do. Do not try to get it all, the microscope will reveal millions that you cannot get." `<Yes, all those little things are there, and with them germs and bacteria by the million to the inch." "Look at friend Jones .dow of his hat, but it sha across is just the street. His eyes are as much Jones as if you count his eyelashes, and a great deal more. If you could draw in the could just what you see at that distance and interpret what is revealed, you would be one of the immortals, though you couldn't draw an eyelash to save your life." "Sharpen vour charcoal. No workman could work for me with nicked and blunted tools." "Draw masterly, then rub it in with dirt, and it will be a masterpiece." "Tell yourself that this is to be done better than it was ever done before." "Yes, you may fail but let it show you made a good fight." "The skull is the base of all facial beauty. Draw it as you would have it could you replace the one you own." "Beauty begins with the bones. If you don't think so, curve the bones of the lower legs and imagine the results." "The greater beauty comes from your habits of thought ex- pression and attitude in life." "Do not grip your pencil or charcoal between your first three fingers as you do to write; you are dealing with greater things than the letter `T' on a postal card." |
