Venturi House Plan

This is the Venturi house plan that Stoel had us recreate on Bond paper. I was told to narrow my letters and make them smaller to present the picture/ plan better.

Perspectives

These are two of the perspective drawings Nadia had us work on. The top is a one - point interior and the bottom is a three point exterior. I loved working on the three point because I never would have believed that I could draw something like this. 

Exterior Poche

Abstract 16

Mrs. Cabrera asked us to draw 16 squares of parts of a twig, and our cell phone. I found that the twig was more freehand sketch techniques and the cell phone used more drafting materials such as rulers and protractors. I personally enjoyed the cell phone because of the drafting techniques I previously learned in Stoels exercises.

Abstract 4

After the rigorous smell of Sharpies, I came to the conclusion that after everything that the class went through the image that comes out is outstanding. I loved the end result of this. The top left is overlapping V's in a black background; top left is a V behind genetic looking strands; bottom left is a stairway in many directions; and the bottom right is a collage of letters and numbers.

Abstract 8

In Suzanne's abstract exercise we took sets of pictures from twigs and cell phones and in turn made a collage out of 8. I really liked the overlap quality in most of these. For example, the overlapping V's in the top right corner inspired me to further that into the collage of 4.

Drafting

Stoel's drafting exercises began on page 114 of the Design Visualization book and had us create a number of structures using our drafting board. The top left is a square separated into lines. The bottom three are buildings that we had to do and taught us how to make even lines.

Nadia's Light Fixtures

I found that doing Nadia's exercise before Stoel's drafting exercise made it difficult to draw objects such as light poles or headlights. In retrospect I believe that I could draw these a lot better with time and more effort than before. The skills like drafting and perspective drawings can help tremendously in projects like these.

Hand Exercise

At the beginning of Tuesday (9.2) our teachers utilized our drawing abilities and made us draw our hand with all its intricate details, I think i did fairly well. What about you? 

Upside Down Drawing

In Design Visualization we demonstrated how just drawing lines and not paying attention to actual figures can actually produce qualitative drawings.
