Wonderful Drawing Website


I recently discovered a wonderful website on drawing, "Draw Anyway." It's author is currently on sabbatical, but there's plenty of old posts to browse through. She offers lots of advice about confidence and finding ideas. And she puts art to all kinds of uses, such as designing a birthday cake.
The drawing of tins comes from her site, from this page.
The various cans are a little clumsy and askew in an essential way. Imagine how it would look if all the cans were drawn in accurate perspective. I'm quite sure, that all things being equal, it would still be lovely. But these cans as they are have personalities. They are more than just cans. They are more like a company of cans, or a coterie of cans -- conversing.
