Thursday 14 October 2010





Course work: Continued repainting work on the Stage Four project. I still have a few new squares to paint as well, but this will require an additional sheet.



Reading and theoretical studies:



(After prolonged search, I was finally able to find and order two more of the recommended texts, both very well used.)

E. H. Gombrich Art and Illusion (11th Printing)

Princeton University Press, Princeton, New Jersey, USA, 1969

Pp. xxv-xliv, 3-22



Hajo Dütchling Cézanne

Taschen, Köln, 2003

Pp. 171-191



Sketchbook work: Tried another limited-palette triad today, using new gamboge, alizarin crimson, and cerulean blue. The secondary colors are more neutralized than in my most recent previous experiment, but are superior to the two earliest of the series. One could do useful work with this combination. I still have a few more ideas to try in this personal project. Followed this with a little sketch of a bunch of radishes, using left-over paint on the palette.







Time today: Two hours 36 minutes
