Sketching the World in Depth

Yeni Camii, 15 september
One of the things I've set for myself as a kind of project while in Turkey is sketching more regularly - more often than not, it's a simple object, usually in profile, but once in a while I have the time to sit down and spend some more time trying to figure out how the world is put together.

One of the things that sketching reminds me is just how difficult it is to render the world in depth - the things that we take for granted now as representations of the way the world 'is' (photographs especially, but film as well) themselves require a tremendous amount of skill and technique.
