Much better than me trying to figure out all these relationships with my 2-dimensional brain. I take lots of photographs of myself in different positions for my work, taping the camera to the wall or setting it up on a shelf, and setting it to a 10-second wait time. Super helpful, but of course I can't get the relationships between people with that method.Vickihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11195527278285894012noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2999230124118604245.post-43484907688323745092012-05-21T21:11:42.075-04:002012-05-21T21:11:42.075-04:00Thanks for the post!

It's always useful to know how artists use reference for their art. <br /><br />In these digital days, instead of real mannikins and model boats, one could use Sketchup models. ;)Ceridwen Taliesinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11447235590042279787noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2999230124118604245.post-31641548165296403772012-05-21T05:56:13.856-04:002012-05-21T05:56:13.856-04:00Hi there.

Congratulations on being named this year's Grand Master.<br />Two corrections, if you could, to this post:<br />Please add the "Jr." to my name.<br />Please change the link to the updated www.bpib.com (the current link is obsolete and you've done me a favor by pointing out that I missed that one during the update/clean-up.)<br /><br />Peace, Jim (|:{>Jim Vadeboncoeur, Jr.https://www.blogger.com/profile/05202049887034952088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2999230124118604245.post-82490476548401441912012-05-20T22:42:08.231-04:002012-05-20T22:42:08.231-04:00I'm sure you know this, but I found it really ...I'm sure you know this, but I found it really interesting when I found out: Diego Rivera was originally commissioned to do the mural, but was fired after fighting with Nelson Rockefeller over his request to remove Lenin and Marx from his "Man at the Crossroads" Mural ( http://constellationdefiant.files.wordpress.com/2010/01/man-at-the-crossroads-rivera.jpg ) Rivera repainted the mural in the Palace of Fine Arts in Mexico City, where one can still see it today.<br /><br />By the way, I received my 20th Anniversary Dinotopia book earlier this week. Beautiful edition!
