Course work: Completed work on the king-snake drawing today. The snake looks more like a snake than the hand does a hand, but I’m not too displeased.
Reading:
Hajo Düchting Cézanne
Taschen, Köln, 1989
Pp 170-216
(A beautifully-produced book with many high-quality reproductions. I found the text somewhat difficult: the author is more convinced of his ability to understand Cézanne’s mind than am I.)
Personal Sketchbook work: In my pocket sketchbook, which has been neglected because of unusually persistent winter weather, a colored-pencil sketch of a tiny flower (6 mm across), species unknown, that blooms here in February. Two drawings in my sketchbook, constructing ellipses in perspective, in preparation for the next part of the current exercise.
Total time: 1 hour 52 min
