Be able to draw an illustration as least well enough to get your point across to another person.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I've done a bit of teaching, but I gave it up - I felt uneasy teaching illustration to people who hadn't yet learned to draw.
Drawing was a constant in how I expressed myself.
Even if you're drawing a cartoon and exaggerating, you want to capture something true about the person.
If you want to read and you want to draw, that helps you to express yourself.
Drawing a good picture is like telling a really good lie - the key is in the incidental detail.
An illustration is a visual editorial - it's just as nuanced. Everything that goes into it is a call you make: every color, every line weight, every angle.
Drawing is like making an expressive gesture with the advantage of permanence.
Simple and to the point is always the best way to get your point across.
I tried to draw people more realistically, but the figure I neglected to update was myself.
Drawings don't have a point. Cartoons, you want to have an opinion; you want them to express a viewpoint.
