Fields other than cartography, such as psychology, neurology, and computer science, have studied differentiation of figure from ground.
As a psychologist, Fields had been studying Vornan's responses to the environment as we moved about, and had come up with two or three contradictory and mutually exclusive evaluations.
It is apparent that Field has not only studied the masters of cinematic understatement, such as Ozu and Bergman, but that he fully understands their processes.
Field studied painting briefly with Samuel F. B. Morse (who later invented the telegraph), evidence that naive painters weren't entirely cut off from academic influences.
Page, Field and Cook had studied early childhood education before they founded The Wiggles in Sydney in 1991.
Field studied Chemistry at Newcastle University, UK, followed by a PhD at the University of Cambridge.
Field then studied social work and town planning at Queen's University Belfast, and worked in this field, eventually becoming Director of Community Services at Belfast City Council.
Fields studied at Beaux-Arts from 1917 until 1927.
The Fields soon moved to London, where Field studied under Muzio Clementi.
Field first studied the piano under his grandfather (also named John Field), who was a professional organist, and later under Tommaso Giordani.
