Hand drafting & rendering

Furniture Rendering

The goal was to simply pick a piece of furniture and render it by hand. I chose a gold-embroidered, English desk from the 18th Century. I used colored pencils, markers, gel pens, and graphite on 12" x 18" vellum.

I designed a Mid Century house for my hand drafting class. This package consists of a perspective drawing, an isometric, an elevation, a section perspective, and a ground plan. The ground plan, elevation, and section were drawn to 3/16” scale on 11”x 17” vellum. Isometric was drawn in 1/8” scale.

scad museum of art: section and perspective

In my hand drafting class, I had to understand the space of the SCAD Museum of Art, and create a section drawing of it in 1/8” scale. I also did a 1 point perspective, study sketch to better understand the exterior space. Section on 12”x 18” drawing paper, sketch on 9”x 12” drawing paper.

Detail and Scale exercise

The main objective of this assignment was to understand how line weight and detail is affected by a smaller scale. First, I drafted my window in my apartment in 1/2" Scale. Then, I drew a snowflake. My third drawing was a combination of the window with several snowflakes that varied in size. The smaller the snowflake was, the less detail it had. These drawings were done in graphite ranging from 4H to 4B.
