My “New School” in the next semester. This is the main, awesome building, at the 5th Avenue, designed by Skidmore, Owings & Merrill.
I must admit I like to be alone at to my morning break meal at the University. I choose a good spot, and draw university folks!
My little sketchbook turns into a research tool, where I test materials, how to express values and lights. Then, my mind gets free, I forget all my troubles, and just draw…
On winter, at the terrace and under the sun , the pleasure gets double (almost everyday, I must say).
I’ve done this drawing to show my students how to draw, using a base geometry. The decomposition of forms to their basic geometry helps to understand the building overall complexity.
The tonal value of the lines is ruled by the visualization hierarchy.
Dibujo de análisis geométrico. La descomposición de las formas a su geometría básica ayuda a entender la complejidad general de edificios.
El valor tonal de las líneas se rige por la jerarquía de visualización.
Hay un pequeño error, a ver quien lo descubre….
During this last, more relaxing week, without posting any drawing, I was able to finish some important pending matters. Anyway, after the break, I am back with the same subject of the last post ( http://wp.me/pLtki-1Gn ), though this time using a 4b pencil, instead of a roller-ball, as the base of the drawing. which do you prefer?
Durante esta última semana, más relaxada, sin publicar cualquier dibujo, he sidocapaz de terminar algunos importantes asuntos pendientes. En fin, después del descanso, estoy de vuelta con el mismo tema del último post (http://wp.me/pLtki-1Gn), aunque esta vez con un lápiz 4b, en lugar del roller-ball, como base del dibujo. ¿cuál te gusta más?
