peer agreement (net): +1drawing aptitude Explanation: The literal translation of "la aptitud del dibujo" would indeed be: drawing aptitude. Lots of google hits too: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=&safe=off&q="drawing a... I have a few more suggestions if you don't want to use aptitude: drawing competency, drawing proficiency, or simply skill (and skillfulness) -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 4 hrs 41 mins (2005-05-24 03:56:42 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Without further context, this would be my best guess: On a flat surface the aptness of the drawing is similar to the command/dominion of the space that birds possess/have. |

peer agreement (net): +1which on a flat surface is the capacity for drawing Explanation: I think doamin isn't quite right because it doesn't give any sense of a power to do something - a domain is something static -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 11 hrs 18 mins (2005-05-24 10:34:02 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- (Woops - domain, I meant!)

I gave my agree to Stella, but please read Explanation: I gave my agree to Stella, and tried to paste this but didn't get in. According to an artist friend of mine I asked: Por "aptitud del Dibujo" se puede entender el desempeño técnico artístico que implica una apropiación conceptual y gráfico del plano en tanto "campo básico" . Campo básico se llama al lugar delimitado en el soporte (papel, cartón, tela, etc.), donde se tiene previsto la realización de la obra artística. De hecho el Campo Básico es el "plano de representación". So, I think is something like, Birds have dominion over space, which on the drawing surface is rendered by the drawing aptitude. |
