We were asked to bring in boxes. From these, a little city would arise... But first we had to get one box right. Measuring with pencils, and doing lots of rubbing out, we tried to get it right by lunchtime. After you'd struggled for a long time, someone else could look at it for a second and point out where it needed changing. (The easel is at an angle so the drawing looks very wrong!) Using our "perfect" box as a reference, we added more and more boxes...

Gosh, I am enjoying your course with you. It's such hard work drawing boxes; getting all those vanishing points right and all the angles etc. I can't do it without extensive use of the pencil as a measure. For me, this kind of drawing is a real challenge; I feel as if I've been doing a 5 mile race and afterwards I'm totally drained! Very enjoyable too of course! What do you feel about the course - is it challenging for you and are you having fun?
Yes, it's exhausting. On the course, I'm looking to grapple with the things I would "naturally" avoid or shy away from, and I'm looking to surprise myself. So, yes, it's challenging - and I'm having fun! - m
