So a 40 year old on LSD makes unlikely, surreal connections and thinks very much like a 5-year-old does. <br /><br />Source:<br />https://www.reuters.com/article/us-science-psychedelic/brain-scans-show-how-lsd-mimics-mind-of-a-baby-idUSKCN0X82B2jeckert55https://www.blogger.com/profile/07404821590214077415noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2999230124118604245.post-5624470125884168162020-05-05T02:25:26.628-04:002020-05-05T02:25:26.628-04:00Want to Contact SilverSingles Customer Services?

I'm in the midst of changing my art to be more authentic, from my own thoughts and experiences, and I find that Kimon Nicolaides and his book The Natural Way to Draw has been very helpful in getting me to focus more on the expression and feeling that I have or want to portray rather than copying the surface.<br /><br />Kimon Nicolaides was almost taught directly by Robert Henri. Henri taught, or was friends with, John Sloan who taught Nicolaides. So the impactful thoughts from Robert Henri's book The Art Spirit is reflected in The Natural Way to Draw.<br /><br />I highly recommend the book.Chris Beavenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13217004166402889504noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2999230124118604245.post-53021708831924037362020-04-27T03:21:55.853-04:002020-04-27T03:21:55.853-04:00not to mention Fortunino Matania detailed drawings...not to mention Fortunino Matania detailed drawings.
