It's funny of things coming all into focus all at the right times. Tues night while at the drawing group one of the guys there was handing out posters. I took it not only to be nice but somehow i knew that i would end up using it artistically in the future. The very next evening i brought a book of ways to improve my drawing abilities. I am somewhat of an art book junkie trying to gain some extra knowledge i might have been lacking before. One lesson that i saw for the 2nd time in one of the books i brought was to make clean, confident and distinctive lines that didn't appear to be sketchy lines. More of the time when i draw or sketch my lines are all over the place. This time i wanted them to be both bold, soft, and controlled. I'm not sure why i had an old newspaper laying on the floor in my room but i did. I found a picture of the gorilla that stood out as a good subject to attempt to apply this technique. This is the magic that came forth.
