Snail Renaissance – Tiny Art Directors are the Best

May 22, 2009 by Minnie Leave a Comment

snails_final_adj_600Tiny art directors are the best! The artist gets the concept from his daughter, executes it and then gets a critique, sometimes to the tune of, “I’m sorry to say that you’re worser than me. You gotta learn to draw as me. You just don’t draw so well. Why do you think that is? It turns out that I’m the good draw-er. It turns out that you’re the art director.”

Sometimes there must be a complete do-over and the critiques are very funny. You can buy prints of Bill Zeman’s work on his shop web site here and in 2210 Chronicle Books will be releasing the book.

Independent Crafters Information

On the Indie Crafts section of CraftGossip I like to support other indie artists by posting tips about running a handmade business, blogging and other helpful information. Once a week I try to feature handmade shops to showcase their work. I also like to share trendy, popular DIY's that I think are amazing and hope you do as well. If you are an Independent Artist or want to start a handmade business, this is the place to find resources. Or if you just love DIY's and everything crafty I hope you'll find some fun projects to make and be inspired by the artists I feature!
