Mark Out the Sensual Life: Hooray!
http://mark-out-the-sensual-life.blogspot.com/2010/11/hooray.html
Mark Out the Sensual Life. My OCA Learning Log. Thursday, November 4, 2010. I have finally escaped The Funk! A combination of letting the funk ride, owning its. Existence by writing about it, and starting to read Marion Milner's. On Not Being Able to Paint. This afternoon, the elements aligned enough for me to just do. Milner's book was originally published in 1950 - she was a psychoanalyst focusing on education and how children learn. (she was a colleague of D.W. Winnicott. After being lost for weeks.

Mark Out the Sensual Life: September 2012
http://mark-out-the-sensual-life.blogspot.com/2012_09_01_archive.html
Mark Out the Sensual Life. My OCA Learning Log. Tuesday, September 18, 2012. Finally, trying again. It's been almost two years since I last wrote here. I confess, I found the course rather overwhelming, what with my ongoing health issues, and decided to defer. I haven't even handed in the first assignment, so it'll be a tall order to complete 3 assignments before August 2013, but if I manage that, I can request a 6-month extension to finish the last 2 assignments. A vintage camera - 1960s? The obligatory...

Mark Out the Sensual Life: October 2010
http://mark-out-the-sensual-life.blogspot.com/2010_10_01_archive.html
Mark Out the Sensual Life. My OCA Learning Log. Tuesday, October 12, 2010. This exercise was all about trying different media and recording my reactions to them. We are to draw boxes - about 10cm x 5cm - and doodle with each medium. I used my A3 sketchbook. Willow Charcoal - thick. Lovely for shading, tho' hard to control - don't know exactly where the mark will go on the paper. Freeing to use tho', vary marks depending on pressure, but. Willow Charcoal - thin. Cretacolor - hard pastel. Just fun to use!

Mark Out the Sensual Life: Making Marks
http://mark-out-the-sensual-life.blogspot.com/2010/10/making-marks.html
Mark Out the Sensual Life. My OCA Learning Log. Saturday, October 9, 2010. Exercise 1 is all about holding pens and pencils and seeing what marks they make. Sounds simple enough, but first you have to get over the blank page. A3 was just too much, so i plumped for the O-so-familiar A4 :). I like the soft and sharp of charcoal :). Graphite pencil too hard. i can't control it so well in circles - like pen - i struggle to form o's and c's, etc.'. March 26, 2011 at 7:42 AM. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Mark Out the Sensual Life: Doodling
http://mark-out-the-sensual-life.blogspot.com/2010/10/doodling.html
Mark Out the Sensual Life. My OCA Learning Log. Saturday, October 9, 2010. I've never been much of a doodler. I never doodled while on the phone - i think it's because i use my hands to talk :). So Exercise 2 was a challenge, but I felt braver and used A3! I wrote in my diary:. I enjoyed the doodling exercise - very freeing! Practically speaking, felt pens are a faff - getting the tops off and on - then I can't control the scratchy tip. Didn't take long to fill A3. Need to ponder reason for this. Introdu...

Mark Out the Sensual Life. My OCA Learning Log. Tuesday, November 9, 2010. What am i doing. Am i trying to 'transfer' the 3D object before me onto the page? Does it matter if the drawing 'looks like' the object? Is this a practical exercise or a spiritual one? Immediate thoughts written in my sketchbook read:. Chose a section. Lit from the left (11.30am - dull day). Realized as drawing, I don't have the skills to draw realistically, so went for the. An I capture that response? What am I doing when I draw?

Mark Out the Sensual Life. My OCA Learning Log. Tuesday, November 2, 2010. I'm still in this dreadful 'funk', but i've realized i need to write about it here and not just on my regular. This an important part of the learning log - not just presenting exercise work - but trying to get to grips with what's going on inside. I'm encountering Resistance and i know a part of why. Important to me - hell, any art is important to me - maybe. Important, and i'm creating my own internal pressure. This is a virtual ...
