In an attempt to actually "draw" what is on my mind, perhaps this is an ode to the extent that studying for the ARE's are consuming my life right now. Yes, not surprisingly Building Systems is my next test in June. As much as this test looks at the technical aspect of these systems, I can't help but look at these like a fun 3D maze that winds and intertwines itself around my building designs.
This drawing was done by documenting an older building and looking at all of the different systems that had built up over time in layers. The drawing tools used were Micron Pen and watercolor pencil. The dark black came about by dipping the pencil in water first, and then drawing on the paper with it wet. The effect was immediate - no need to build up colors to get a dark black, but drawing in this way did lend itself to a certain lack of control for better or worse. The black dries up quickly and you can feel your pencil stop sliding on the paper and suddenly act more "crayon-like"
