SHOWFLIPPER PRESENTS 13 Types of Drawing Techniques
Automatic Drawing Developed by surrealists to express the subconscious mind. Drawing is free of rational control where the hand moves freely and mark making is largely influenced by chance and accident. 03/23/18 www.showflipper.com | Company Presentation 2
