I bet you will really be able to draw people really well doing all this anatomy drawings…leonardo de vinci studied anatomy…he would get bodies and put them in water and watch them decompose…gruesome yet he helped science no doubt…

Thanks… I read Jean Genet, “Journal of a thief” a diary of the authors experience of being a petty thief in the 1930´ties, homosexual and outcast vagabonding all around europe and being harassed and jailed because of his homosexuality - im a very boring heterosexual man myself, but its surprisingly beautiful written. Jean Genet can make the sordid look brilliant.

In architecture studio, we were told to buy “thinking with the right side of the brain”. An exercise we were made to do was to draw something upside down…I did a portrait of an old man…you’re not supposed to look at the picture right side up until you’re done…amazing detail can be made drawing upside down…try it.

i think it really helped me
it was a long time ago
it was a funny as hell picture the upside down one when i turned it round
I couldn’t draw a bit before starting that book
