Hey everyone, thanks for checking out this fun video where I show you my process of using dynamic symmetry and absinthe to draw a master copy remake. What is a Master Copy Remake? It's your own interpretation of a master painting or drawing; similar composition and setting, but entirely your own style.
In the video, I show how I bring Absinthe into the museum to help me quiet some perfectionism and draw freely. I hand draw the dynamic symmetry grid and use the diagonals, and the original painting for inspiration.
Tons of famous artists drank absinthe back in the old days. Unfortunately, because of false stories and bad experiments, it was banned for about a century. It's been legal in the US since 2007 and you can now enjoy it without looking over your shoulder.
****Consuming alcohol isn't necessary for a significant creative breakthrough, but it helped me in this case. If you try Absinthe, be of drinking age, in a safe environment, and drink responsibly! If you cut off your ear like Van Gogh or see a Green Fairy, please don't call me!
I make things to help visual artists reach the master level and you can find them below. Thanks so much for all of the continued support! It keeps the content flowing :D

Dynamic symmetry is not taught in many photography and art schools, but I've dedicated my site to sharing the secrets of master painters, so artists of today can apply it.
