Without boundaries to your imagination. Explore. Explain what it’s like to have your line in 3D. Walk around your artwork. I love the idea that I can do a 360 around my artwork. You can stand in your artwork. look around it from the inside out. alter perspective. be surprised by your creativity. sculpting in the air.
Drawing in VR takes life drawing to a whole new level. it alters your experience and perception of line itself.
Walk 360 around your line. Stand in your artwork. Sculpt in the air. Experience a 3D brush. Change the scale.
“How often do you delight in what you’ve done and actually think “Gosh isn’t that great?” Whereas actually you get to that point very quickly with the VR. As you can see, I’d like to take that home.”
