An exercise in Atmospheric or Color Perspective....warm advances and cool recedes. Nothing new....Leonardo da Vinci formulated the idea and it's been followed by artists ever since. Sometimes referred to as Aerial Perspective, this notion is based on observations that as objects move further away from us, the more they partake of blue (as in the distant hills in a landscape painting). The Impressionists and Post Impressionists were keenly aware of temperature changes in their paintings to effect near and far elements in a vast variety of lighting conditions. Renoir employs this principle very visibly in most of his figure paintings. Perhaps the finest examples of color-temperature spatial shifts are to be seen in the the paintings of Paul Cezanne.

May 11, 2009. Oil on gessoboard, 14"x18". This is the first of 2 sessions. I like the start... and that's the problem. I'm hesitant to work into it again but I need to get more practice with multiple sessions.

Red chalk (aka Verithin colored pencil) and white charcoal on sized paper.

Figure drawing from live model. The model got dizzy after the second 20 minute block, and had to sit down, so I ended up with two not-as-finished-as-usual drawings.
