(the Mucha issue). I need to save up the money and get at least a digital subscription for it!<br /><br />With 51 hours of graduate study in Illustration under my belt, I can well appreciate the gift of an instructor who gives good reviews. Too often I found they were too focused on inconsequential details, too vague, or mostly focused on making my art look like theirs. Pyle's comments are informative and topical, and look at aspects of the subject which are so often skipped--what's being told in the story of the painting.Maria Arnthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12119362476966335660noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2999230124118604245.post-38575625000801419042012-03-05T21:46:40.201-05:002012-03-05T21:46:40.201-05:00What a coincidence!
