D3 Sketch Competition Board 1

BTW - WAS CONTACTED THAT AT LEAST ONE OF THESE (MAYBE MORE) WAS SELECTED AND DISPLAYED OUT OF OVER 1,500 ENTRIES!! 

I recently submitted 5 boards to a call for art/competition with the theme of sketchings role in the world today. Or at least that is the part I latched onto.  I broke the way I use sketching into 5 distinct roles.  This first board is about how I sketch when I travel to remember, record, or just sit there and try to listen to what the architect is trying to say.  I am active in the Urban Sketchers community lately but these sketches range from 1999 on the top left to 2013.  I will post the others seperatley but they cover. Sketching for work. Sketching on the Ipad (new medium), Sketching through a design process, and using 3d modeling to design with and tell multiple stories (aesthetic and techincal).

I hope you enjoy. It was fun to categorize these and think about how we use sketches today.

3.1.2013 - I decided to place all of this into one post

Drawing the white bear center for the arts

I will add more later, but today I took my lunch in the car and started drawing the current white bear center for the arts thinking how to teach the class. This is not close to finished, and the drawing hasn't even convinced me it is keeper, but it is a good teacher....warts and all. These are chronological screen shots and might give a hint to my process.

































T Rex!

Drawing dinosaurs with Leo didn't stop after he went to bed. I had so much fun with this I laughed the whole time I drew this. Soooo fun.

Leo loved it this morning but I made him look at it through a crack in the door to keep it from scaring him.









Fun with big cardboard

Our new couch came with huge card board. Leo and had a great time. He was beside himself.
