A very inspiring video about making art.
I decided to write down the things that he said for me to remember all of the time when drawing or making art.
Derek Boshier's Lessons in Art:
1. Don't forget to work on the edge.
2. Not do the image and fill the edge in. Go over the top iff you'd like.
3. You're drawing towards making an interesting work of art.

4.Taking the line for a walk. Take your mind for a walk now.
5. Don't be afraid to destroy things.
6. Add anything, take anything out. Picture making is not putting everything in, its sometimes the ability to leave things out.

7. Take some risks with these drawings. Take some risks.
And his final quote from the video that struck me when he was critiquing one of his student's works:
It has a strangeness that is beyond depiction.
