Which Side Of Your Brain Do You Use More?

KotokoPlum · Posted: Tue Mar 01, 2005 2:10 pm Post subject:

I've been thinking. Some people on FAC copy pictures better than they can draw originals. The majority draw originals better, but there are some users who copy pics more.

Then I remembered that my art teacher had told us that people who can copy better use the left side of their brain more, and the people who create original things use the right. So, which side do you use more?

Note: Sorry, if this was made already, but I haven't seen anything like this since I've come so...

Well...me being left-handed, I suppose my right side of my brain is more dominant than my left.

That's sort of true for me. I can't copy things off something then again, my originals doesn't come out the way I want to most of the time. So I don't know... Laughing

hmm i guess i would use my right side of the brain .
i think i herd my art teacher saying something about that too but i think he was telling us about in the sense of drawing them upside down or not, cant remeber.

That is what I call "Artistically Challenged"! Laughing

Just kidding. Practice is all that's needed

I'm sure I use the right side more since brain sides are opposite to used hands. I'm lefty.

I am better at orignals because I got sick of people saying I was copying so after a while I pretty much deleted copying directly from official art from my brain.

I'm a left-hander, too! ^_^

And I also do better at coming up with originals than trying to draw from an existing source....

usually i would look at an already drawn picture
draw it
then redraw it but in a totally different way
or i just start a doodle and look at what it will look like
all though i dont know if i actually use my brain(if i have one) to do the things on the above

I'd say I'm more left-sided. In the sence of this topic, no, I do not trace pictures. I just think that I'm better at puzzles and problem solving than I am creativly, although the two are closely tied if you think about it.

I'm probably more right-sided than anything. I play movies in my head whenever I hear music or read, and I believe myself to be more artistic than anything.

I guess that makes me left sided, as I normally need a reference for most of my drawings.
