1.4 Sketchbook: Loose Sketches

• Description: You are required to do one sketch per module in addition to the other exercises and homework assignments. Keep these drawings loose. They will not be graded, but they are part of your participation requirement. Pick any subject that interests you, and scan/photograph your sketch before posting it in the corresponding topic.

Module #2: Ink and Pencil Sketch

• 2.1 Participation and Discussion: Analysis

• 2.2 Assignment: Line Drawing

• 2.3 Sketchbook: Loose Sketches

2.1 Participation and Discussion: Analysis

• Description: Post a line drawing sketch that you like. It does not have to be architectural, but it should contain qualities that make a good line drawing. Tell us what is good about it.

• Answer: I chose the Old Rookery Building with a large fountain tank in Chicago, IL. as a line drawing sketch. There are dark and lighter shades of gray around the building that symbolize daytime in Chicago when people are working for a job there. Also, the windows from the outside are not clear except for the darker shades that are inside while the lighter tones of the sidewalks portray a visual connection with pedestrians but, no proper landscape design is shown such as green infrastructure and regional planning.
