Transcription of Manet’s Luncheon on the Grass by @rachelwilch

Coptic icons depict beautiful religious narratives, and do not reach to portray realism, depth, naturalistic …
Pathways are directional marks and shapes for our eyes to follow across a 2 dimensional artwork. They are a powerful compositional tool to keep the viewer’s eyes engaged and moving around a composition. They’re also great for artists to practice, because they emphasize that if we’re to think compositionally, each part must play a role …
Fridays are comic day for our 30 day challenge, and today your challenge is to show a progression. People who draw and paint often feel like everything they make needs to be completely different and original to what they made before.
