John Murray classes week of July 16, 2012

Next week my wife, Mary, and I have tickets to Cirque Du Soleil on Wednesday night, so Bill StGeorge will be covering the class for me that night.
Monday I will be there and thought a Picasso acrobat idea might interest you. The stark and simple figure I uploaded is a great minimalist example of how complexity can be handled and composed. The incredible positions that gymnasts and acrobats can achieve are beautifully expressed in a compressed black and white design.
Next week try a simplified picture of a complex subject: a car, a person, a face, a figure, an animal and do it in black and white. See you next week. john.
