In all my years in advertising, I very rarely met anyone who could draw. The ad world is full of people who went to art school, yet they didn’t teach them the simplest skill, sketching. Recently 2 creative directors I worked with have been coming with me to my figure drawing classes. Steve Pedonis and Keith Butters have been improving in leaps and bounds. the biggest thing though is that they have become addicted to drawing. On days they have freelance work and cannot attend class, they get depressed. I understand that illness. I took them on our first excursion to the Museum of Natural History. This is what I did.
