C'est un complément à ce que je savais déjà mais qui m'a beaucoup aidé pour mes oeuvres. Un livre que je garde précieusement depuis très longtemps.
Je crois que c'est un ouvrage que tout artiste devrait connaitre... avant même de pouvoir faire de l'abstrait ou de "l'art contemporain"...

"Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain, by Betty Edwards"
Here is a book that has influenced my artistic life, that changed my point of view of drawing ... in fact, just after I started teenage years, I didn't understand why, for some people, it is so easy to draw and for others, it is not. This is a book that teaches us to look at things differently, looking at the empty space around the object rather than the object itself what connects us with the right hemisphere of our brain.
This book is a complement to what I already knew but helped me a lot for my work. A book that I will keep preciously for a long time.
I think this is a book that every artist should read ... before they can make the abstract or "modern art" ...
