Fine Arts Model Interview Question:

Tell me how much drawing do you have to go through to prepare for a painting?

Submitted by: Muhammad

Only one... really! All my drawings are done inside my head; I am no good with a pencil. After I complete the research, gather the props (or pictures of the props) and visualize the composition, I then proceed to draw the cartoon (a finished drawing that serves as the pattern for the painting), which will end up projected onto the painting surface.

I rarely make changes. This is a very reliable and productive method I learned from studying Norman Rockwell.
