LINK: Drawing is the Best way to learn!

 All types of drawing has its roots in the brain. Art and the Brain are linked to human intelligence and communication.

 Classical studies or random expressions erupt from the cognitive spaces that otherwise may go unfolded.

 Various times in Prof. Onli's life as an artist, he practiced as a major market illustrator with a focus on various types of editorial illustrations for magazings, textbooks and broadcast media.  Onli made the act of drawing central to this professional application.

This client history included the likes of Playboy Magazine, Chicago Magazine and WGN Television.

 Over the decades I have drawn for money. That is to say I have been a major market illustrator using my basic love and devotion to drawing as the basis of serving my clients. I crafted a range of impressive distinct styles and took direction from my clients.  I tend to teach drawing in a workshop and project based thesis derived from those years of successful drawing /earning practices.

 Of course I still showcase my works as fine art in galleries for curators, collectors and art lovers' appreciation.

When I was an undergrad at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago the curriculum was very anti commercial applications so I secretly grew my illustrative styles and freelance client base.  The earnings were how I paid tuition since I was never granted much financial aid.

 This drawing was done in the early 1980s for Fantasy Life Style World.

"My client history included Playboy Magazine, WGN Courtroom News, Fantasy Lifestyle World, The Paris Metro and others."

 Prof. Onli innovated the Future-Primitif style in the later 20th century to blend older traditions with newer design sensitivities. Fundamentals met experimental style in fine & commercial art.
