I can visualize 3/4 view even if I'm shown Front View

Posted Jan 2019

It's hard to do, but I can do it.

Tonight I wanted to hone my clarification between Tame Caricatures and Exaggerated Caricatures. I'm really developing a very good ability to control this. I set out to draw Tame Caricatures, and they stayed that way. I drew Tame Caricatures. Based on some Photos that I had taken at Events.

But they were all Front Views. When we're involved with people, they have a habit of turning straight toward us. I wondered if I could draw 3/4 view Caricatures even if a person was looking directly at me. It's hard ~ takes a little more time and effort if the Guest doesn't sit in 3/4 view when I want to draw 3/4 view. But I can do it!

Hmmm..... Sometimes the Caricature looks better in the Front View, and sometimes it looks better in the 3/4 View. I feel like the best way to use this skill (if I have the nerve to do it at a Party) ~ is to choose the easiest way to get a good Caricature. I would only choose to draw a Different View than the one that I actually see ~ If I don't feel like the Front View has anything interesting in it. Or if I'm getting tired of drawing Front Views.

I'll frequently make Changes at intervals throughout the Event to keep myself interested. Because if the Artist isn't interested in what she's drawing, usually nobody else will be either. This could be just one more of the many different things that I change up when needed.

Crapitiolios!

Posted Jan 2019

CRAPITIOLIOS!! I feel like I got a new handle on clarifying my different approaches for Tame Caricatures or Exaggerated Caricatures, and I figured that I'd best start checking it out with the one that just wasn't getting drawn quite Tame last night. But the reference photo was very Small ~ and that would be a problem with trying out tonight's approach. I make the reference picture Small when I prepare to show it along with the Caricature because I there's only a little bit of space where we see a post ~ and I want to focus more on the Caricature than on the reference photo.

So I went into my Computer's Trash to look for the original (Larger) Reference Photo ~ feeling like it's a needle in a haystack to actually turn up there. Because my Computer's Trash Automatically Empties every 30 days.

Even so, there were Thousands of Photos there in the Trash. I started looking through them. "Hmmmm..... these Caricatures look good," I thought. "I don't know why they're in the Trash. I don't remember posting them." I pulled a few out of the trash. Put them onto my Computer's Desktop.

Oh! it's because the Suffix is MOV instead of JPG. That happens a lot when I mindlessly press the wrong button on my Phone's Camera while Entertaining at an Event. When I get good Reactions, I like to snap a few quick Photos along with the Caricature that I drew.

My phone has Choices for things like Photo, Portrait, MOVIE....

Hmmm..... I wondered if I could just take a Still shot from the Movie. I slid these pictures into PhotoShop.

Oh! Now I remember. I remember why I automatically put all photos that have MOV Suffix (happens if I choose Movie instead of Photo) or AAE Suffix (happens if I use one of those Options for changing the Lighting) or an E before the Image Number (I don't know What that is. DO YOU? ANYBODY?). I feel uncomfortable about it, but I Think the AAE's and the E-before the Image Number pictures are Duplicates that I would also have in my main list of JPG's. And I thought Oh the MOV's that I take by mistake ~ result in me just losing the opportunity to use SO MANY PICTURES. These really looked intriguing. Hundreds of them here just in This Month's Trash??

I slid a couple of the MOV's into PhotoShop. Yes ~ I remember ~ I just see a big Green Rectangle instead of an Image Or a Movie. Gone. The pictures are Gone.

But tonight I figured out a way to make even more work for me. I could Open (thereby Enlarging) each MOV on the Desktop, take a Screenshot, and Slide the Screenshot into PhotoShop. So I can make my usual posts of my Caricature with a little Reference Picture in the Corner.

I'm probably not going to do all that. I hope I don't make mistakes when I snap those Quick Photos

I just like the way the picture looks when I photograph my Caricatures this way:
