Who Knew?

When I was first informed about the sketchbook/moleskine project by the teacher I had for two days, I tried to find out more about it. The teacher had heard about it somewhere and said that it could be found on the internet. I couldn't really ever find anything. I just came across this on the blog of a former classmate. I was quite suprised but it was cool to finally see what the teacher was talking about. I'm not going to join this project formally but if you're interested there's still time.

This is another older piece, it was also photographed by David Hawkinson.

Time for another update on the Sketchbook project. Stars in the sky seems to be a reoccurring theme in cathedrals and temples, including Egyptian, Masonic and Latter-day Saint. The golden background is reminiscent of the early Renaissance and the churches of Byzantium.


The second page (sorry for the poor photo) is my version of a figure I saw in One Eternal Round by Hugh Nibley and Michael Rhodes. I just read the little blurb underneath the figure and it talked about how the different rings represented different things, a sort of religious map. The innermost circle is true learning, the next is false learning, then vice and then the pre existence. The idea being to avoid vice, to pass through false learning to reach true learning.

PS I found this program about Chartres and I think it should be helpful to this project.
