Frosted Mylar -- marvelous!




I just returned from doing a little painting and lecturing at a workshop in Austin, Texas for a group of young Concept Artists. These are the folks who design the games and do all the monsters and dragons in the movies.

They are, one and all, highly dedicated to Drawing Drawing Drawing. Being kids who wear their caps backwards, you know that they are all cutting-edge experts when it comes to computers. Much of their artwork is created on computers, yet they all have an abiding respect for the Old Ways and are not strangers to oil paints.

I thought it might be good here to introduce a most useful material for painting sketches and roughs. It is FROSTED MYLAR and it is sold at places that sell architectural supplies. I tape it to a drawing board and happily paint away. It is archival, paint does not bleed through it, it is as thin as paper which makes it easy to store one
