#fridayfun Here’s a secret for everyone who thinks “I can’t draw”: Visual communication is much more about METAPHOR than about #drawing skills.
In the drawing tutorial image here, I’ve used the metaphor of a broken chain to communicate the idea “weak,” as in “weak link.” All with VERY simple shapes!
Even the shading in the final example is unnecessary to communicate the idea (but it’s fun and easy to learn! 😊) And notice none of my chains are identical. IT DOESN’T MATTER!
#visualcommunication is not about making amazing art; it’s about communicating IDEAS. Period.
If you can hold a pen, you can draw to communicate. —
Now I want to hear from you: Back in kindergarten everybody drew. Did you prefer crayons or markers?
