Lots of us got fantasy to imagine stories and things. Some just tell it,some try to write it down, some try to visualize them, some go and put their imaginations into music by expressing them with singing and playing. Some, like Mrs. M.´s naughty little boy, use each and every way.
Now, for tonight, here are some hints how to visualize with a piece of paper and a pencil. It is the best way to put´em out of your mind.
Jump outa your seat for a piece of nice white paper and a pencil.
So, start by accepting that drawing is nothing but looking at your interior worlds and all it contains, and try to understand it first in terms of a middle axis, its proportion and its basic shape.Sounds boring? Don´t argue, try it.
So the first row gives you the basic shapes itself. Now you got to decide which basic shapes you use to show the structure of something you want to draw.That may lead to the second row: still all of this are mere lines and basic shapes, as you can see.
The third rope gives you an impression how to understand the third dimension- it is a trick, because we do not have a real third dimension on the paper.So we use axis and shortening. The fourth row already leads you to understand shapes that can come alive. Find out about your basic shapes in the mirror.
This can change your life.
From now on you can visualize your inner world, directly.Even show it to somebody. No need for verbal packages any more.In case the words don´t come easily.
So far for today,
Have fun!
