This was the first project I completed in the Drawing for Design class. Thank God for classes like this, since i never took any classes in high school. This first project consisted of understanding how to draw geometric structures as we practiced drawing squares, triangles, and cylinders. Also focused on the either 1st, 2nd, or 3rd point perspective as our task was to pick and draw a building.
Sidebar: As I work to clean up my drawing skills the bigger problem was drawing outside in the cold (this was around October) and still trying to make nice pretty drawings.
Sketches was about getting the form and drawing what was in front of you even if it was rough and somewhat messy.
I decided to sketch the Living Arts Centre cause of its interesting geometric structure plus there was enough space to sit and draw good angles of the building lol.
Oh yea this was the place from my previous post where I took those pictures. The other one inside with the clouds was from City Hall.
It took 2 days of sketching since we had to have at least 20 different sketches of the building
After we had to choose 3 different sketches and combine them together to create a composition.
What was difficult about it is that it still had to have a perspective (with shadows) and a point of interest.
Once we scanned the sketches we had to outline them on Illustrator.
The process with the composition was a lot of repeating but at the same time simplifying and deleting unnecessary parts.
Here's my final layout which is suppose to capture the "essence" of the Living Arts Centre.
