Sven Juhlin is a gifted character artist who has been a personal inspiration my entire career. Discovering his work in college was both enlightening and motivating for me as an aspiring character artist.
Over the years, Sven has worked for some of the biggest names in the business, amassing a very impressive portfolio. In this stream I will be taking a deep dive into Sven's character work. Hopefully some of his magic will rub off on us.

Hi Irinel
Hello!
Yes, supposedly when you hit puberty, your brain/body goes through another growth spurt before settling down again.
Hi everyone rolling in =]
That's fascinating Rita, my brain was fast until I was ( and then it slowed down...
Without using words, you can still have a primitive language with emotions. Someone makes you mad, you stomp the ground. That place is a bad place? You stand your ground and act scared. You're really underestimating the power of emotions. Yes, today we have precise communication with language, but it's just another level of abstraction out from primitive communication. Language today must have come from a need. Other species of animals communicate with howling and singing, we just have the ability to modulate those grunts into more precise bits and the ability to represent a lot of things with those series of grunts. Can't you teach a dog commands? But what does the dog hear? This grunt is different than this grunt, so it must be this action. Dogs can also tell your mood without words. Emotions are powerful, Omar.
At 18, my brain slowed down to normal.
Hello Juan
Hello guys :3
After a fall at 2, I lost roughly 10 years of normal education, because I was unable to focus and learn. I did though receive special education. I was mostly learning to read and write simple words and learning to add and subtract. At 15, something changed. My brain speeded up its learning process. I assimulated many books in months. At 15, I was still learning addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. At 16, I was learning algebra, trignometry, etc. I also learned mechanical drawing in few months instead of 3 years.
