Edward G Nilges I am still learning therefore I apologize for any misunderstanding NPOV can be consistent with how to I added this advice because it was taught by my teachers at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago I was thinking of the reader typical of the art student who needs practical and hands on advice not a dull recitativo of facts NPOV does NOT mean dullness or facts disconnected from praxis It means the fair and balanced sans the nasty tone reportage of beliefs and for many people their beliefs emerge in their praxis No art teacher to my knowledge would seriously defend copying photographs and the only art student to my knowledge to do this regularly was Adolf Hitler sorry about the Godwin convergence but that s the facts And it is folly to teach perspective totally separate from figure drawing in perspective because the mathematics of perspective emphasise rectangular views which are a block to figure drawing except in the analysis of the figure s masses The articles on art technique will be in my POV useless to actual art students who do not learn their trade in the analytic fashion They should indeed report as I did report techniques in the context of which schools espoused which techniques At the same time their focus in the case of art technique should be on guidance This is not to depart from the facts only to show a truly NPOV respect for diversity in learning styles Please reply I am sorry I did not see this earlier I look forward to working with you on restoring the lively and interesting facts concerning what really goes on in figure drawing classes in such a way that real art students can find a usable resource
