Wow, I couldn't even trace that picture well... much less replicate it free hand upside down!

I wonder how this guy started using lipstick as his medium...

Okay, that's picture itself is amazing, but just WHAT THE HECK to the fact that it was done upside down! Geez! I can draw okay.... but upside down, forget it!

actually, drawing upside down produces a more technically accurate picture.

when you see an object over and over and often our brains take less time analyzing and therefore don't get all the detail of the object anymore (faces, trees, houses... all the things you see every day). it would get overwhelming to us if we saw every detail in everything every day, so our brain minimizes it.

by flipping your subject (if you can) upside down and drawing it upside down, it causes the brain to analyze the details again and you can create a more life like piece of art

(yikes, that didn't sound art-geeky did it

lol.)
