21.01.2022 I will never feel the cold listening to John Elliott here. John’s appearance was a patina too and behind him is a drawing first and foremost whatever the medium. My teacher for a few rare years before he quit QCA. Great soul ignored in a stupid art world

18.01.2022 Drawing by Dominic Ingres. David Walsh's #MONA in "Hound in the Hunt" intends to speculate that some artists used optical devices to assist in drafting a composition. There may well be instances of artists in the time of Vermeer and Ingres using such optical devices however what MONA and its organs for this exhibition have not demonstrated and can not envisage, (they quite arrogantly think they've found the right people to do it---they haven't got a clue) is what it takes to... draw with-out optical devices. It's possible optical devices would provide some surety where things 'are' and take some of the strain out of composing a complex composition but what it takes to 'See', to do it with 'life', no exo-skeletal device alone can bring you close to achieving the brilliance of interpretation in an Ingres drawing. It requires skill honed out of years of direct observation of all the formal qualities and quantities percieved and/or experienced. And it will take you in many directions in your personal 'cogntive breathing' with 'things' in the world. Optical devices akin to mere copying with-out understanding 'the relationships' that constitute a given visual percept will only stunt your rendering. That severely stunted insight is very clearly on display at MONA's "Hound In the Hunt". [What Walsh wants to glean from this exhibition may become apparent in the next show the "Orgin of Art".] Drawing like an Ingres is not for everyone but the empathy developed in patient observation and interpretation in general is a great tool for any aesthete and no optical device is necessary.

07.01.2022 Thomas Bock, ‘convict artist’ Tasmania Australia What I find to be unique about Thomas is that, as a convict his access to the human figure for his modeling purposes would have been very limited to the point he relied on studying human form with his wife as model. What’s special about that reliance (in my experience) is he develops a very personal knowledge of a specific figure, an event we rarely get to witness in the early modern era: circa 1800s. Stiff drafhtmanship bec...omes delicately sensible to the particular Some of these drawings would be exquisite in any collection and last but not least, a must see also for their portrayal of ‘Tasmanian’ Aboriginal people. Thanks to @Ikon gallery Birmingham UK and TMAG.

05.01.2022 Pleasure to the eye: Mid-tone paper pushed and pulled by darks and lights. 'Broad' forms or shapes first, line define secondarily but can be arbitrary. Art of seeing whole is art of "master draughtperson".

03.01.2022 A priceless foundation for any design is 'solid' drawing skills / refined 'cognitive breathing' https://twitter.com/ft/status/886914393535074309

01.01.2022 This article focuses mostly on a utility value rather than a aesthetic (sensethetic) value of beauty and truth....I'm not so sure the debate is over or the issue of beauty or some truth fully explicated here http://m.fastcompany.com//the-golden-ratio-designs-biggest
