Coffee Mugs™

Interesting play with line weight is vital for many visual notions.
Use it judiciously -and not for solely decorative purposes, as the variety will, in the end, be decorative regardless.

  1. wise advice.

    I see many technically perfect drawings on internet "guided" and "ornate" by many "likes" ....but very boring though....

    I am , however, never bored here, on Visual Cogitations .... take it as a compliment.

    Interesting would be to examine what is happening next to the (drawing) line. I mean on the both sides of the line happen "things" . Maybe invisible for some people but there is certainly "something" happening. Oscillations , movements or complete stillness or calmness ? What happens if the main subject become a side issue and the side issue become a main subject? Is it possible to "catch" it in artistic way?


    I enjoy your drawings. Again. As usually . Thanks.

    1. yes.
      I firmly believe that, as in music, the empty spaces in between the notes are at times more powerful than the notes themselves.
      Well done drawings are harnessed by effective manipulation of negative space, and its balance is made precarious by wise use of empty space.

      Thank you for always enjoying my drawings.
