• Youtube Raggy Ragsdale Made a comment on my last video that he had never considered tracing tracings before. That seemed so obvious to me it made me realise that it’s a technique I worked out myself years ago and so I assume everyone gets it. See his video here.

    If you want to get your drawing just how you want it to be, trace on top of tracings onto of tracings until you get it right. This will also get your hand’s muscle memory used to the lines shapes and curves of the drawing you are trying to create.

  • This looks like a great exhibition if you happen to be in Vermont. Shame I can’t be there.

    rokebyRokeby Museum’s 2015 exhibit — The Farm: Drawings of Rowland Evans Robinson, 1850–1880 — features nearly forty pictures of farm life 150 years ago, when “eating local” was a matter of necessity not a lifestyle choice. Born to abolitionist parents at Rokeby, then a thriving Merino sheep farm, Robinson ventured to New York City as a young man to pursue his career. After years of struggle and rejection, he found a market for his work in the agricultural papers of the day. This association left a rich archive of images, including casual sketches, finished drawings, and published engravings of the very farm work Robinson had hoped to leave behind. Organized by the farm’s output, the pictures feature wool, apples, butter, and field crops along with several barns. The Farm will be on view at Rokeby Museum’s Education Center until October 25, 2015.”
