Take a nostalgic leap with Luli Kibudi's designs

Luli Kibudi (@bylulikibudi) is a graphic designer originally from Buenos Aires, Argentina. She currently lives in Barcelona, Spain. Her work experience includes work in marketing and advertising, branding and editorial design.

In her Once Appon a Time series (derived from a pun on the term app), Luli produced a visual essay exploring the modern functions of apps compared to objects we used to use in the past. The result is an attractive retro-modern graphic combination. Learn about her project below:

Free download: Tone exercises to improve your botanical drawing

Free resource: tone exercises to improve your botanical drawing. Botanical drawing is a discipline where observation and precision coexist with artistic sensitivity. Beyond form and contour, there is a key element that makes the difference between a flat drawing and one full of life: tone. Knowing how to work correctly with lights, shadows and tonal gradations is essential to represent volume, texture and depth in organic forms such as leaves, flowers or fruits. This free resource comes from the course Mastering botanical drawing with graphite pencil techniques and is intended as a practical support for those who want to improve their technique step by step. Through simple and progressive exercises, you will be able to train your graphite control and refine your eye to understand how light builds form in botanical drawing. What is tone and why is it so important in botanical drawing?[/b In drawing, tone refers to the varying degrees of lightness and darkness used to represent light and shadow. It's not just about "shading," it's about understanding how light strikes an object and how that information translates into tonal values on paper. In botanical drawing, tone plays an especially important role. Natural forms are rarely flat or uniform: they exhibit smooth curves, folds, veins and subtle changes in texture. Controlling tone allows you to suggest these qualities without overloading the drawing with lines, adding realism and depth. In addition, working well with tone helps to: - Better understand the three-dimensional structure of plants. - Differentiate planes and volumes clearly. - Convey delicacy and precision, two key values of botanical drawing.

Artists who reinvented their career by exploring new ways to create

How changing technique, discipline or approach became the creative engine of some of the most influential artists in history. The history of art is not a straight line. It is made of constant detours, breaks, pauses and restarts. Many of the artists we consider essential today did not find their voice at the first attempt, nor did they remain faithful to a single technique or style throughout their careers. On the contrary: they allowed themselves to change, make mistakes and explore new paths. In a creative context where stylistic consistency is often interpreted as synonymous with success, reinvention can be seen as a risk. Changing disciplines, abandoning a recognized technique or starting from scratch can generate insecurity, both internally and externally. However, this article celebrates the courage of those who dared to break with the established to rediscover their creative voice and push the boundaries of their artistic practice. Why Reinvent Yourself? The reasons that lead an artist to reinvent himself are multiple and deeply personal. In many cases, the change arises from a creative block, a life crisis or the tiredness of repeating a formula that no longer generates enthusiasm. In others, it responds to a change of environment, to new cultural influences or simply to the curiosity to explore unknown territories. Reinventing oneself does not necessarily imply abandoning what came before, but dialoguing with it from another place. Changing medium, technique or approach can unblock creative processes, bring new layers of meaning to the work and restore the pleasure of creating without expectations. In addition, opening up to other disciplines allows us to question acquired habits and escape the pressure to comply with a fixed identity.
