Observe: Artist At Work

Artists observe in many ways. 

  • Artists observe objects, people, and nature. (Remember how a couple of weeks ago we explored drawing from observation? We did an exercise where we drew an insect in detail while studying it carefully.)
  • Artists also observe artists at work, artwork by other artists and their own work (reflect). 















Today we will observe a collage artist, known as MarkPaperScissors at work.
