posted on: USENet: alt.seduction.fast newsgroup, December 12, 2000Maniac, thanks for bringint this topic up. This makes VERY good sense
to me and explains why for the past few years while I've been away from
art, my woman skills deteriorated and now I have to "work" at it (which
I don't like, I'd rather it all be natural). I think in the past I
recommended a couple of non-seduction specific books which not only
provide a means to learn how to draw or appreciate art but also to get
into states where you can "awaken" the right brain.
"Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain" by Dr. Betty Edwards
"Drawing on the Artist Within" also by Dr. Betty Edwards
For example, one excercise in learning how to draw from life is to look
at the inverse silhouette (negative space) of an object. A vase with
flowers, for example. Instead of looking at the vase and the flowers
and drawing *THAT* on your sketch pad, look at the inverse silhouetted
shapes (the open air) between those things. Look at the various shapes
and curves created in the negative space and their distance
relationships to each other. After a little while, once you are in the
"right brain" zone, you will stop seeing a vase with flowers and instead
see all the interesting shapes and lines and colors that make up the
visual image in front of you.
In fact, that's what I think a bunch of guys here should try and report
back on. I'm REALLY curious how well people can understand this
concept. Here's the excercise (should only take 10-20 minutes):
Get a sketch pad or a couple sheets of blank paper, a pencil (or pen),
and an eraser (if you feel the need). Then, get some kind of object
like I described above, the more interesting the object, the better.
Inanimate object is best (don't try to draw your cat). Sit the object
about 8-12 feet in front of you.
-- On the first piece of paper, just try to draw the object the way you
normally would. Spend about 5-10 minutes on it until you feel "done" or
you become too frustrated to get it right. Don't draw a cartoon of the
object, or what you THINK it looks like, try to reproduce it exactly.
-- On the second piece of paper, again, draw the object but THIS time,
look at the NEGATIVE space. This might be a bit tough at first but
imagine a photo negative and try to SEE the shapes making up the space
in between the components of the object, their relationship to each
other, the distances from each other. Use your thumb stretch out in
front of you as a reference to the size relationships of those shapes.
Also look at the negative space AROUND the object. Pay attention to how
those lines and curves form around the other shapes. Don't worry about
getting the drawing "right" or "wrong" simply reporduce those things you
see. Spend 5-10 minutes on it. More if you find yourself having fun.
When you're done, compare the 2 images you'sve drawn and notice the
difference. Notice that the one that will please you the most will be
the second drawing. Why? Because you relieved your left brain (which
is the logical, mathematical side) from the burden of having to
accomplish a right-brain (visual, spacial) task. Also, as you look at
those 2 images, try to imagine the differnt states you were in. I bet
you'll be able to describe the first state better than the second but
you'll instictually know that the second state FELT better.
I know this about those states for a fact because that's the kind of
state I get into when immersed in doing artwork. That is the state
Maniac is describing and it is making me think that there night be some
excercises that can be acnhored mentally in order to bubble up this
state on-the-fly.
