Sunday 24 January 2010




Course work: Further work on the colored pencil drawing. Am perhaps halfway through now, unless I decide that it needs more work after I’ve taken it a bit further. A progress photo:




Reading:



Carol Strickland The Annotated Mona Lisa

Andrews and McMeel, Kansas City, Missouri, USA, 1992

Pp 25-41



Personal Sketchbook work: A colored pencil sketch of my morning selection of pills.




Weekly reflections on learning experience: This had been a week of tediously working to cover a very large sheet of paper with a very small pencil point. I have enjoyed trying to combine colors of pencils to closely emulate the actual colors present, but I think that the exercise could have been just as beneficial on an A3 or even an A4 sheet: the hours I have spent and will spend just hatching in the background seem to have little teaching value except for reinforcing patience and will.



Total time: 2 hours 46 minutes (106h31m)
