Small objects - CA3 at work, 27/1/11

by Michael Durant
Enjoyable afternoon, looking hard at small objects

Tony's bunch of keys (with Jane in the background otherwise engaged)
It occurred to me as I was struggling with my hazel nuts (in the foreground), a later talk/discussion on how to represent "form" with these complex objects might be an idea for the future.
For instance, 
Here's a pencil drawing of a walnut:

and here's a pen cil drawing of a tomato:

...how do the artists make these drawing appear so realisitic? - Discuss.........

Anyway, Here are some more pics from this afternoon
