Tuesday 1 December 2009




Course work: I carefully cut an onion (previously drawn in my personal sketchbook) in half vertically, and drew it in my course sketchbook with a felt-tip pen, using a single line. Some retracing was required, but it seemed like a pretty simple exercise. Perhaps I am overlooking something.
