PROMPT JAN.22: Draw a line. Wrong answers only.
.
>> I had an art teacher who was a stickler about drawing exercises. One particular exercise stands out as relevant for today:
.
"Starting from a specific point, draw a long perfectly straight line that exactly ends at another specific point. NO RULERS!"
.
I filled seemingly endless journal pages with straight-ish lines, in what felt like art-school's version of "wax on, wax off". Of course, Curie effortlessly whips out perfection.
.
So, using the philosophy that flawed is beautiful (that's what I tell myself to sleep at night), why not give Curie the "gift" of drawing humanly sloppy lines?
