Artistic elements articles?
Hey everyone, I was just thinking last night of doing something like Andy Rutledge's E-book,(great,BTW).
Articles on artistic elements and how they relate to bonsai, BUT do them here on the site wher they would be done in the forum as to allow for feedback, and questions.
They would be split into catagories such as "Line and Contour", "Shape and Mass", "Form and Space" ,"Texture" , "Color and Value",and "Time and Motion".
There would most likely be a set of companion articles based on the principles of design, and how they relate to bonsai, they would include such topics as: "Variety and Unity", "Balance", "Contrast", "Rhythm",and "Proportion"
Just a thought let me know what you think, even if it's that you think I'm crazy(although this has been established, quite some time ago), or if you think the idea stinks and I'm just trying to rip off Andy's e-book (which I'm really not, I didn't think about his E-book untill Mindcrime pointed it out to me in chat a few minutes ago).
