We reach the midpoint of the Draw-Along With Frank Borth strips - this time with an important lesson that some modern artists (Yeah - you know who you are) missed when they were learning to draw - FEET!
If you're just joining us, here are parts One and Two of the series.
Three down, two to go. But let's jump back a bit to that Sketch-It of Ben Franklin we showed at the start of this series. It was numbered 6 - here are the previous 5...
With Ben Franklin, they saved the best for last, eh?
Ben Franklin is one of those people i think of when i think of Great Americans.
It's a shame our Fake President hates him so much, and is trying to destroy Franklin's works, isn't it?
But, i digress. (sorry, Peter)
If things go according to plan, we'll be back this afternoon with another little post for those who don't care for Art Lessons.

Jack Kirby could've picked up a few tips from the bit about hands - he often drew fingers with six (or more) joints in them.
ReplyDeleteWay to sink your teeth in and hang on, Gordie!
ReplyDeleteYou sure it wasn't the inkers?
(If this conversation seems a bit off to you folks, then you should be reading the Kid's blog so you can avoid this sort of confusion.)
Yup, 100% sure. The inkers would often draw in the fingernails that Jack hadn't bothered with too.
DeleteGot a new post up for you, Gordie
