Favorite Harvey Card

My favorite Harvey card is "Fantasize". When I draw original characters of my own design, I like to give them their own unique backstory.

I often find myself either redoing or discarding ideas when it comes to my characters. In the latter case I change everything about them, including name, personality, and of course backstory.

Whenever I create a new character, the work I have put in endears me to them because I am customizing every aspect of their lives in their world. This experience is what keeps me drawing my own characters.

The Rule of Thirds

The Rule of Thirds refers to an imaginary grid drawn across a photo area that breaks the image into nine equal squares.
