corner view ≈ bright

on a bright sunny day, one can see forever. i've adapted the {film} title a little to today's theme. also recycling a weekend post, on which a dear friend told me how vincent van gogh painted pictures from tableaus his brother sent him. residing in the eclectic south, after his grim northern hemisphere séjour, the man must have learned a thing or two on brightness.
 

imagine stepping in a great artist's footsteps for a moment, taking in the composition, considering the colour palette, learning from the brush strokes, seeing a masterpiece resurrect under your very eyes and hands, for copying a winning combo. in a way, that must lend a trumendous feeling, non? and perhaps aplomb? 

i've yet to do it, but i've been thinking about copying. paying hommage to a favourite artist, by painting established work over. and over. instead, i've been stalling on my cartoon, naturally, pushing out radars in all directions but drawing. since the weekend however i have been sketching again, pushing in this play button. jane's corner view, francesca's theme.
