Welcome
The Act of Drawing is a function of the human brain. There is a specific way of seeing differently, so that you can make drawings like the Great Masters of Art.
The Great Masters have always hidden their SECRET of being able to draw well. I discovered it in 1986 while studying my doctorate in physics at Washington University in Saint Louis, USA. From ’86 onwards, I have taught my “Method of Seeing Differently to Draw Well” in Brazil, USA, Germany, Portugal and now anywhere in the world through the Internet.
ANYONE CAN MAKE GREAT DRAWINGS! But you have to know how to See Differently, see in the way necessary to make good Art!
Lecture in The Louvre Museum, Paris, France.
Meet me...
Dr. Plínio Santos Filho, Ph.D.
I have always worked with Art and Science. In fact, my doctoral and postdoctoral studies in materials science physics made possible my discovery of how to see differently, see in the manner that was used by the Great Masters. Please take a look at what I have been up to here in my curriculum vitae!
“One piece of work earned him a “best paper” award in 1999 from the NC chapter of the American Associate of Physics Teachers. For several years, as an overload, he taught a Science of Art course that attracted, just by word of mouth, a talented and diverse group of majors from across campus. This was the only science and art on campus for decades until a colleague of mine started a similar course in 2014, in art and biology. In 1998, for his work in PY211-212 he garnered one of NC State University’s most prestigious awards – induction into the NC State Academy of Outstanding Teachers.”
Prof. Dr. Christopher Gould – NCSU Professor and ex-head of the Physics Department NCSU.
“Dr. Santos-Filho was living in the USA and teaching at North Carolina State University when I suggested that we could construct a material research conservation and restoration laboratory in Olinda. He then, moved back to Brazil, and in 2008, while I was the Minister of Science and Technology of Brazil, we inaugurated the Conservation and Restoration Laboratory of Olinda. Olinda is one of Unesco’ World Heritage Sites since 1982.”
Prof. Dr. Sergio Rezende, Ph.D. – Físico e Ex-ministro da Ciência e Tecnologia do Brasil
