2). Get It Out Of Your Head And Into a Mind Map By : Gina J. Hiatt, PhD
Do you ever feel like you have some great ideas, but when you sit down to write them, they're not so great? Or even worse, you can't really get a sense of what the ideas were? In one of my graduate student coaching groups we have been discussing the difficulty of translating partly formed ideas into words on paper. One technique that makes use of a normally underutilized part of our brain is called "Mind Mapping.

4). Great Gesture Drawing in Minutes, Breathe Life into Your Drawings By :
Copyright 2006 Todd Harris
So what is Gesture? Some people define gesture as action. I think that it is action and a little more. It is the energy or life force of the character or person you are drawing. Essentially, it is the personality and make-up of the subject you are drawing. This helps us get the definition life drawing. It is exactly that! Everything and everyone has a gesture.

5). The Geometric Structures of Chess as a Catalyst for Creative Composition By : Justin Michael Jenkins
Ever since i was old enough to recognize the names of each piece, i have been naturally drawn to the game of chess for many reasons. This particular game, above all others, was exactly what i would gravitate to in a most curious way as a child living in upstate New York. Something about this game kept me searching for more as my mind raced with a curious fascination into the miriad of geometric structures and unique principles that, to me, seemed almost perfectly in harmony with life and the universe itself.

6). Keep A Sketchbook And Have Fun By : Paolo Basauri

You will see that the quality of your sketchbooks will be better and better, and what at first was dull then will become almost a work of art for itself.

Copyright 2006 Socrates Olympio
In many respects one could say that this question is almost like a misnomer on any given day. $135 million?
