front door
|
Perhaps you are wondering what's going on here, with all these
|
new and different pictures I am throwing at you. Just what is it
|
that I am doing, and how am I making all of these?
|
I'm really not doing anything except "outlining" simple objects
|
with text. Try this: look at an object in the room. A clock, a book;
|
even your computer screen. Outline the thing. You probably won't need
|
more than the _ and | characters, to start with. Once you have the
|
basic shape, you can go back and add other details; if you think it
|
needs them. Often, your first text-art picture of something may look
|
too simple, or just plain bad. Don't give up on it! All that it may need
|
is just a detail or two. Imagine that front door above, without the knob
|
or inset panels. It would be nothing but a box, right? But by filling in
|
those details, it looks like a door. Let's make a new one, together...

|
| | Okay, we're calling it a door,
|
| | but it doesn't really look like
|
| | anything except a rectangle,
|
