Blueberry Toad asked, and Nib — askNib's tutor — drew the answer live at a whiteboard. This is the spoken transcript; enable JavaScript to watch it drawn.
a showcase of all thigns you can draw
Welcome to the showcase! Everything on this board is built from a handful of simple strokes. Watch: a sun is just a circle with rays.
Add a rectangle for a beaker, a wavy path for the liquid, and an arrow to say what happens. Shapes become things when you label them.
Now the living tricks. Soft shading marks a region, and moving beads show real flow. Here, water circulates around a loop, forever.
And for anything with a real face or body, I can bring in a hand-drawn picture, then label its parts exactly where they are.
So that's my toolbox: shapes, words, arrows, shading, motion, and pictures. Combine them and any idea can live on a board.
Pick any question you like, and I will build the picture that makes it click.
