School)
Maryland Institute
College of Art (MICA)
I learned a lot of great stuff in
school, here’s what made a
difference:
▪ Learning how to sketch
▪ Researching before making
▪ Composition
▪ The Product Design Process
▪ Drawing from life
4. SKETCHIN
G• Sketching is one of the
most valuable skills for
any artist because it
allows you to express
your ideas quickly and
in a way that is easy to
understand
• Keeping sketchbooks
also allows you to look
back on past ideas and
further develop them

6. RESEARCHIN
G• Researching is
important to back up
your work, especially if
you are designing a
product
• In relation to fine art, it is
important to be as
knowledgeable as
possible about the topic
of the work that you are
making so that it is
accurately represented

8. COMPOSITION AND LIFE
DRAWING
• Understanding
composition allows you
to create pieces that are
interesting, dynamic, and
keep the viewers
attention
• Knowing how to draw
well is valuable in
communicating ideas
and creating realistic
images
