Wednesdays are “see and respond” days in our 30 day challenge. Two weeks ago, the challenge was to follow specific instructions for making Sol LeWitt’s wall drawing #118. Today is Sol LeWitt instructions for wall drawing #328. This one suggests you start with a black wall and draw with white crayon. Paper or black painted panel is a nearly suitable replacement, if a black wall is not present for you to draw on. Ask your mother.

In the last post called Yogurt Holds the Blueberry, I talked about thinking of everything in a composition as an active shape, painting the spaces between things, instead of painting an object floating on nothing. If we are painting the space between things, we start to see the “background” as an active shape on the …
