Course work: Some minor work on Stage Three of Project Two.



Commenced work on Perspective Project One, Stage One, selecting four equal-sized books (thin ones, to assist in ignoring their vertical thickness). Two were flat on a table, one elevated on a short cylindrical cup, and one raised on a fairly tall cylindrical vase. I decided that A4 paper was too small for this project; my work is about 25 x 40 cm. Construction lines and horizon line are black; projected sides are red; correction lines are blue. Although I did a very similar project for the drawing course, I found that my work was only modestly improved with the current project. (This suggests the need for additional work.)





Reading and theoretical studies:



E.H. Gombrich, The Story of Art

Phaidon Press Limited, Oxford 1978

Pp. 229-246



Sketchbook work: A pocket sketchbook sketch of some icicles, an infrequent phenomenon here.









Time today: One hour 33 minutes
