Course work: Reviewed my sketches from 6 May and concluded that I need another visit to the site to have enough information to work with. Will take my camera this time.
Reading:
Rose-Marie & Ranier Hagen What Great Paintings Say (Vol. 2)
Taschen, Köln, 2005
Pp 524-535
Personal sketchbook work: Attempted some sketches of buildings from my photo collection. The first was a downhill street in a small German town: my perspective didn’t come out quite right. The second was the ornate corner tower of our local hotel, built in 1898.
Other activity: Watched a VHS tape by Tony Couch entitled Drawing and Sketching with Markers. This was less useful than I had hoped.
Weekly reflections on learning experience: Further study of perspective early in the week has shown that I may understand the theory, but am having trouble applying it in practice. Later in the week, farm work and resultant fatigue cut severely into my drawing efforts.
Total time: 2 hours 7 minutes (33h18m)
