Yeah, I think the...Thanks for the comments, fellas. Yeah, I think the problem is the building is both too specific and too haphazard. I keep redrawing it trying to leave more and more elements out, but it's still fighting itself too much--y'know, the very loose, hand-drawn-ness is fighting the overly specific architectural structure. <BR/><BR/>I know just what you mean El about the "architecture-as-background-for-people" strategy, and this will be my primary approach--but I still need to find a good approach to the architecture all the same.<BR/><BR/>Thanks again for the react'ns. I'll work on it. <BR/><BR/>(The blank space is cool though, huh?)Davis Chinohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16168954208679712542noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19949517.post-3250223071378106672008-06-04T09:38:00.000-07:002008-06-04T09:38:00.000-07:00the thumbnail of the drawing looks great.

Should it be a larger format so you get that thumbnail tightening for the pub size. But then the larger size is probably more difficult to make the sketch loose. Tough. I'd say always make the point of a sketch a figure so that architecture is always just a loose framing vignetteMr Goodsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11990879366082004882noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19949517.post-79318530231812761502008-06-04T09:35:00.000-07:002008-06-04T09:35:00.000-07:00Yeah, I dig the white space, too.You are always so...Yeah, I dig the white space, too.<BR/><BR/>You are always so hard on your drawings...
