Course work: After a day of consideration, I decided that I had not met the objectives of the “Still Life” exercise to my satisfaction. I therefore made another setup, this one of seashells, and drew it with colored pencils, using black and two shades of grey.

Personal Sketchbook work: Started an exercise from a colored pencil workbook Colored Pencil Techniques (Bernard Poulin) F&W Books, Cincinnati, Ohio, USA, 1989. This exercise will take me several sessions to complete, but should help my colored pencil handling. Also drew a tomato in graphite, in partial preparation for the upcoming fruit and vegetable work.
Total time: 3 hours 13 minutes
