Seeing Through Drawing BBC documentary 1978
Hi folks, The 7-day mindful drawing challenge is underway. It's great to see your drawing on here. Last night I watched the first half of this 1978 BBC documentary on drawing - Seeing Through Drawing. It is old-fashioned and so some of the way it's presented can be taken with a pinch of salt. However, there is wonderful footage of David Hockney at work and other artists talking as they work. Hockney talks about drawing as a kind of visual note taking and Jim Dine seems to use drawing materials more like a painter using paint. It's in two parts, each an hour long. I'm going to watch part two this evening if I can. If anyone watches it, perhaps we can discuss anything of interest on here?
Keep on drawing ....
