I have an old book my grandmother gave me when I was like 5. I can remember going to another state to visit her with my mom. I thought we were just going to visit. I remember she was old and blind, and told me to pick something out (from her house) that I would like to have. She had lots of interesting things and I thought I was just getting a gift. I didn't know she was on home hospice, that she was going to die and wanted to leave me something. I remember picking it out and being very happy with my present. It's still on my shelf. I just finished college for writing. Funny how things become more clear as you grow up. That was the only time I got to see her, that trip. She passed while we were there. But I remember, and I love her.

any chance that your grand dad actually studied architecture or was an architect? because i'm an architecture student and we do the same thing! the details of the walls/columns/ceilings etc. especially the fact that he wrote definitions or descriptions of each drawings, architects' main medium are inks as well

@ivey-pz7rp 6 жыл бұрын

Elisa Shay yeah that's what I was thinking too. the way he drew the lines above and below the text is like what you do when hand lettering. he may have taken a drafting/architecture class because this stuff is similar to what I do in my drafting class at school

@cassualtea2040 5 жыл бұрын

@Orlieo _ I think what they mean is just how much art has simplified and stylized since then, today anime and cartoons are valid art forms but back then this was what was considered art. You can't really deny that comparing art back then to art now (compare your sketchbook to this one) and then take into consideration the mediums they used as well, it's definitely more finely crafted? More detailed and true to life so to speak. I guess to op they just think its a step down from quality, they think its less impressive and truth be told, yea, its beautiful but compared to that it is less impressive, because anime is what I'm used to seeing so seeing all this old art wows me. But ye, dont be so sensitive, this guy was just expressing their opinion, not invalidating anime as an art form. They just think anime is less impressive and if you dont agree with that its okay, you're both still valid anyway. Edit: Thanks for coming to *my* TED talk.

@lonerstar Жыл бұрын

I think good handwriting was actually very common back then. I do remember going to a WW2 exhibition and saw the letters. They all had amazing handwriting. Heck, just search up old letters and you'll see a ton more. It could be because they were more religious back then, because my dad told me priests would teach cursive handwriting when they were kids, although I'm not so sure about that. He's from Iran, so things could've been different there. But yeah, I just find their handwritings super interesting. I've been trying to write in cursive too lately, and it's pretty fun. I think you should do that too! :)
