Painters Tip
I like to think about drawing and painting in terms of shapes and angles. Just about everything can be started with a geometric shape. Think of bottles and vases as square or rectangle first. Make you basic shape and then fill in the bottle inside of it. If you make a line down the center of the shape you will have two halves to work with. When you look at a live oak tree, think of a half circle for the basic canopy shape. Looking at objects that way will open up new ways to draw and paint. Try not to look at a tree as a tree, but rather as form, mass, shape, line, angles, tone and color. Artists must train themselves not to look at objects the way other people do.
