Is It a Kid's Instinct?
Cooper is good at picking up on names of musicians now he's too. He can pick outa aaron cop s head from a distance and say, there's aaron copeland. It was amazing to see that at two years old, he was picking up certain personalities associated with certain sounds, words. I was thinking to day that i do not miss the work of parenthood.
Composition is technical, creative, and incredibly subjective. Marshall teaches us how to learn composition and suggests artists and resources that will help you learn more about it. Marshall talks about breaking apart master paintings to learn how to compose, focal points, contrasts, metaphors, harmonic armatures like the golden ratio, among many other things. Marshall has years of experience teaching this subject so there's a lot to absorb and be inspired by when it comes to composition.
