Assignment Four

Thursday 8 April 2010




Course work:



Made a viewing window, but not from the provided instructions. Mine is made from two L-shaped pieces of cardboard, marked so that it adjustable to paper dimensions.



Started on the sketchbook walk: was driven in by heavy rain after making three small sketches with #2 pencil, no erasures, with occasional light rain falling, resulting in some distortion of my paper surface.





Started work on the research point concerning different artist’s depictions of landscapes. This is a big enough topic for a doctoral dissertation, but I’ll try to produce a brief report after I’ve looked into the topic further.
