NAILING DOWN A CONCEPT

 

Well everyone, I’m pretty excited right now because I found a way to record myself over a slideshow! This is pretty similar to the talk I gave at Brain Candy and runs around 17 minutes. There are a few little glitches and a whole lot of ‘kind ofs’ (didn’t realize I used that phrase so much as a thinking out loud tool!), but I hope it gives you a bit of insight into what happens before any drawing even begins.

I do want to point out that I learned this process during my time with Visual Arts Passage and mainly from my mentors Edward Kinsella and Sterling Hundley. It’s brought a lot to my practice and is a really grounding process to have especially when you’re dealing with any sort of creative block or lack of motivation.

Enjoy!
