I have downloade...Thanks for your recommendations.<br /><br />I have downloaded some of these old out-of-copyright books, printed and bound my own copies - over a dozen so far. Not as good as an original, but it allows me to access these resources. I have also bought a couple of others.<br /><br />I have found the Parkhurst book to be the most useful for me so far, but the others seem to be full of good information waiting for me to arrive at a point where I will understand it.<br /><br />Looking forward to more of your book recommendations when you get a chance to share.<br /><br />As for David Hockney, I personally think he has done some interesting art, and some not so, and been very successful at it. I have not read his book, but wonder how many who take a dump on him have read it themselves. I did see some of his tv show based on the book (a long time ago), and read another book about him in which he discusses his ideas in relation to this - I didn't get the impression he was saying these artists couldn't draw / paint, he seemed to be more focused on trying to explain (as well as I remember these things!) why there was a sudden change in drawing / painting styles with respect to perspective etc. Whether this "change" actually occurred is another issue of which I know little. <br />CheersChrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17885370870462580218noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4555295961358558347.post-28215644382587701282010-06-03T23:30:14.122-04:002010-06-03T23:30:14.122-04:00Thanks.
