Morning.

Steps:

1. Outer Space (for reals).

2.  Inner Space (for reals).

3.  Your job is to copy an image of the River Ogwen in Snowdonia, in northwestern Wales, in as much detail as possible in the time limit (14-ish minutes), keeping your pencil moving the entire time.  The link to the photo is below, after the music.

• When you’re ready, press “Play” to hear British composer Vaughan William’s masterpiece “A Lark Ascending,” performed by the wonderfully named Hugh Bean.

• Then, right-click (or control-click) here to open the image in a new tab or window.  Remember: you’re aiming for detail.  Think of the image like a map – one line leads to the next; all you have to worry about is staying relaxed and being aware of spatial relationships.

4.  When you’re done, give the image a title – “The River Ogwen” – date it, and keep it somewhere safe and organized so that we can look at it together later.

Is there anything in that image that is useful for your The Black Cauldron work?

See you at 10:00!
