Course work: Drew the seed-pod of a sweet-gum tree, five times life-size, in rollerball pen, using line, hatching, and stippling, as part of the Detailed observation of nature exercise.




Reading:



Michel van Maarseveen Vermeer of Delft: His Life and Times (2nd edition)

Bekking and Blitz Publishers Amersfoort, The Netherlands, 2006

Pp 75-115

(Much of this small volume is devoted to the author’s opinions concerning the locations from which The Little Street and A View of Delft were painted, but there is sufficient biographical information to make it interesting, and it is well-illustrated.)



Personal Sketchbook work: A pencil sketch of one of our cats, sound asleep.




Total time: 1 hour 37 min (26h43m)
