day #365 - the end of an era

I thought I was on top of it; I had finished early and was looking for a movie to watch already 3 hours ago. And I don't know how time went by. A phonecall, some networking studying, some online shopping and here we are, already past the time for an early movie. Regardless, today is a special day. The blog is over! I finished 365 days of daily painting and recording it, whatever that means. A big part of the process I will have to keep doing mainly for myself. Perhaps taking daily photos of my work and saving it on some folder. This has provem useful many times when I trying to date a piece I've been working on. Also making a small diary of today's achievements. It's still useful. But this will be done for my eyes only. I also don't know if I will be continuing my obsessively daily painting. How would life be if I had days off? Now for example that I'm moving out and I have to daily chores that until now were completely taken care of, perhaps I'll allow my

day #67 - Late practice

It's already very late, I need to get to bed. What did I achieve today? I feel very disappointed. It's strange because in the beginning I was satisfied. I'm disappointed with the gestures/postures - they don't feel "good enough". Okay, now that I've expressed that, let's give some positive feedback. For a start, the arrangements of shapes into perspective (buildings) with the rendering has been very fun, and satisfying. I like the result. I've also started to develop an intuitive grasp of the way the vanishing points slide on the horizon(s) when the objects rotate, allowing me to create more accurate perspective drawings. There are a few interesting gestures and postures too - not many, but there are some. That's all for today.
