Star Wars art lessons

stormtroopers.jpgMatt Busch, the artist behind You Can Draw Star Wars has a few video tutorials for kids on the official Star Wars site. This one, about light and shadow, shows what’s missing from a lot of kids’ how-to-draw books — too many have step-by-step lessons (though there’s that, too) that can stifle creativity, but here Matt teaches art and drawing fundamentals using Star Wars simply as a theme. He’s pretty entertaining, too, and if I were still 10 years old, I would eat this stuff up. I certainly drew my share of R2-D2s as a kid.

(Thanks, Robert)
