I finally managed to get my drawings sorted and online over at the Turnbull Group. I’m amazed at how different the drawings are once they’re photographed – sometimes the photo flatters the drawing, and sometimes the image brings out horror not immediately apparent from the drawing. I guess it’s like those old school photos – if only I could look at the photos without cringing. Maybe it’s the same with the drawings – I know from previous experience that looking back on the drawings that are – say – a year old, I’d think ‘Hey, that’s not as bad as I thought’, and others it was more like ‘Oh good grief, what were you thinking?’. I don’t imagine Leonardo or Albrecht ever thought that though. Probably never gave it a second thought. Tradesmen, turning out consistent works, time after time. *Sigh*.
marginalia
is the Latin word for 'things in the margin', and refers to writing or decoration in the margins of a manuscript. I am exploring the edges and margins of our world through photographs and writing....from February 10, 2011...
I was too busy writing elsewhere to write here this time last year. So many words, so little time...
