CHAPTER 1STRUCTURE
We have ideas we want to get down on the page, but we need materials to do that. And, we need some level of control over those materials. That’s what this chapter is about. We’ll start with a review of a few materials and then couple those with a few basic techniques. This book is not just about making marks. It’s about making the right marks for the right job. And, really, it’s not too difficult. We just need to make sure the materials don’t get in the way as we work through our big ideas.
