Wednesday 29 September 2010




Course work: Repainted the grey scale yet again, and painted the colored squares.



Reading and theoretical studies:



R.L Gregory Eye and Brain: The Psychology of Seeing (3rd Ed)

McGraw-Hill Book Company, New York, 1978

Pp. 208-240



(This is a fairly interesting book, although the only copy I was able to find was published in 1978. A more contemporary work that covers the same subject is Margaret Livingstone’s Vision and Art: The Biology of Seeing, which I read earlier this year, and which I would suggest as a replacement for Dr. Gregory’s work, as it is aimed more directly at the reader specifically interested in art.)





Sketchbook work: Attempted a small drapery sketch with paint left over from the grey-scale work, using the brush in hand. Not too successful.







Time today: 1hour 43 minutes
