Approaching unfamiliar objects to draw by unrecognizing them is a fascinating concept to me. I learned something new again. I enjoyed this installment very much.
Thank you, I'm glad you found it useful! I feel like a lot of artists do this without explicitly following the logic of it, but while reading about phenomenology, I immediately made a connection. :)
Wonderful! In fact, I just recorded an episode of my podcast this morning where my guest and I hit upon this same fact - that often we take permission from other artists to see things in certain ways and, having done so, wonder why we didn't think of it ourselves. The good ideas always make intuitive sense once absorbed.
As someone who is trying to learn to be a better illustrator, I find your decision to not include the horizon, distant landscape or a sense of the water surface itself really fascinating.
That is great to hear, Simon. I'll be sure to speak more about process in coming posts and videos. I think you would really enjoy listening to my podcast.

I agree with C. Amaya - really interesting how you describe the process. It makes sense, but I'd never thought of it that way.
