Again, thank you for your time and efforts!
I'll see you on the other side of 250, or so, boxes!
I hope you find nothing but success and growth in achieving your goals!
Thank you so much for your time and effort! I value your feedback.
I think I see where your hatred of funnels comes from. They can be pesky! I should probably spend more time in warm ups to become more familiar.
I appreciate your patience as I overlook some instruction; I seem to have room to grow in my patience and am rushing things at times. I'm happy to have some help to identify that, among other things.
Here's the updated images. I've included a new page of funnels, the revised rotated boxes page, and the two pages of revised rough perspective.
Again, I appreciate your time!
I'd been drawing as a hobby for a solid 10 years at least before I finally had the concept of composition explained to me by a friend.
Unlike the spatial reasoning we delve into here, where it's all about understanding the relationships between things in three dimensions, composition is all about understanding what you're drawing as it exists in two dimensions. It's about the silhouettes that are used to represent objects, without concern for what those objects are. It's all just shapes, how those shapes balance against one another, and how their arrangement encourages the viewer's eye to follow a specific path. When it comes to illustration, composition is extremely important, and coming to understand it fundamentally changed how I approached my own work.
Marcos Mateu-Mestre's Framed Ink is among the best books out there on explaining composition, and how to think through the way in which you lay out your work.
Illustration is, at its core, storytelling, and understanding composition will arm you with the tools you'll need to tell stories that occur across a span of time, within the confines of a single frame.
