i only took 3 yrs of classes at a junior college & it's been quite awhile...
*scratches head & thinks*
- yes, squint! this how you best see constrast. (forget about getting wrinkles, cuz they'll be headin' your way regardless.)
- don't fall in love with your work, step back to look at the whole picture.
(this applies to so much more than artwork, too btw. in fact i tell this to my husband all the time when he's out trimming shrubbery in our yard. step back! then you can SEE that you're trimming the shrubs all lopsided.)
- buy the best paint brush & materials that you can afford.
(this also applies to much more in life than just artwork. sure, if the cheapest brush is all that you can afford, then yeah! that's better than no brush at all. buy it & paint! but the old adage "you get what you pay for" is valid with paint brushes & so much more. quality products tend to function better & last longer.)
hrmm... i guess it's been too long since my last class... if i recall more of my profs' wisdoms, i'll try to post them here. i know i walked away with much more than that - it's just been too long since i've even thought about their words.
