“Like fear of flying,
fear of graphics has caused enormous discomfort for many enormously
talented people. This book is positively therapeutic. It takes you by the hand
gently, and leads you through simple exercises step by step, and then
suddenly, from your own hand, recognisable images begin to appear. For
either ‘graphic terror’ or ‘graphic tune-up’, this
is a great addition to your resource kit.” Jack
Pearpoint, Inclusion Press
There are three main
requirements of a good graphic facilitator.
- You must have an image library lodged in
your brain. It needs to be readily accessed; the less thinking about
drawing you need to do the better.
- You need to be able to pull out the key
points of discussions and presentations. There isn’t time to
record everything, so you must sift out the salient points and discard
the rest.
- You need to be able to work at speed. Your
aim is not to interrupt the flow of conversation; this means you will
need to work quickly as well as accurately.
This book contains an
extensive image library, full of step-by-step images and tips to make your
drawings clearer. There is however, no ‘official set’ of
graphic images; the aim is not to create a picture language, nor to make
everyone draw the same. The book simply contains images found to be quick
and easy to reproduce, as well as advice around making your recording
easier to understand. Over time you will adapt the images and develop your
own style – which is good.
