November 9th Perspective & Leonardo's first principle: Curiosita

Perspective Lesson Horizon line, vanishing point, 1st 2nd and third perspectives
Copying the last Supper. Use the ruler and please measure from the vanishing point


"The desire to know is natural to good men" Leonardo DaVinci
- to question   - be inquisitive
Leonardo searched for answers with three different points (views)
things to write:
1."Take a flat mirror and look at your work within it, you will be better able to judge its faults than in any other way"   Leonardo DaVinci
2.You will lose your power of judgement if you continuously work, so go away, relax.
3. Go some distance away to view the work as it is smaller; see proportion, colour and harmony

pg 54 An observation about the caged baby finches then Leonardo's obsession to buy the birds in the market and set them free.
Daily Check  repeat "I am always learning something new.... LOVE TO LEARN

Homework
A. if you hear a new word or saying look it up and record it, or ask what the saying implies. read, identify and solve problems (learn from children) In decision making seek different applications and perspectives. Take time to reflect and contemplate.

A bit of fact you can tell your friends or family:  Leonardo recorded thousands and thousands of pages of notes,  7,000 (about 1/2) were left to Francesco Melzi.  and Bill Gates paid 30.8 million for just 8 pages in 1994!!
Homework
1. What would you learn if your could learn anything at all?
2. 100 Questions, brainstorming fashion. (i.e.: how does a bird fly -Leonardo's version) A child's -"Why is the sky blue?"
3. Ask: What are my strengths? (best quality) What are my weaknesses? What can i do to be more...(helpful/improving/effective/sensitive, you fill in the blank) Do not be upset or happy by the answer. Simply listen, accept it,  and contemplate.  This is a lesson of interpersonal intelligence. How to get along with others.

Lastly: Finish your skeleton characters
