It's almost magical, but it is not; for Betty Edwards explains why you were "null" in drawing, and teaches you what it takes to not be. His method is based on a theory of how the two hemispheres of the brain, which has not yet been validated by scientific experimentation, but specialists of the brain can not recognize that efficiency. Personally, I have borrowed heavily Betty Edwards for my own education, although my readings on the brain have made me take a step back from an overly schematic intepretation of how our mind and Artistic Creation. Anyway, I am happy to have effective arguments to prove that the design is not restricted to an elite, those people "naturally gifted". For several years, I pay their account with prejudice, which make the "gift" and "talent" a prerequisite for artistic learning. The results obtained by my beginning students, largely thanks to Betty Edwards exercises, confirm me every year that learning design begins with learning by observation and standby part our mind too present in everyday life, with language, logic, identifying things, the search for efficiency, the cult of speed, the obsession with results and immediate perfection. Betty reminds us that anything can be learned, and that we must allow time for learning. I note that those who fail are those who did not want to endure almost clinging infant to the theory of "gift". Complete reading Betty's book by that of books on genetics, like the works of Albert Jacquard, or the functioning of the brain. It is a fascinating world that we are far from having been around ... Discover also the book by Bert Dodson, "The key of the drawing," which for me is the obvious complement to the book by Betty Edwards, excellent synthesis between traditional teaching and the method "drawing with the right brain."
