What is the best way to observe or study an ordinary surrounding, in detail?
I believe, it is by painting the scene. It is while drawing and painting that we observe the minute little details, those subtle colors that define the ambience. Painting is the best way to evaluate ourselves and see what we easily overlook.
It is when we sit to draw a simple image, we just saw on our way back from a morning walk, that we understand how many details we miss seeing in our day-to-day life.
