This was one of the initial design sketches I did for this gable elevation design study. My sketch above is weirdly off because I drew in 4 garage door panels ( on an 8′-0″ door, there are typically 4 equal sized panels ). Whew – Thanks, Photoshop! The sketch above has a similar condition.

6:45am I had to sketch out a quick graphic image for my annual “ What to Get an Architect for Christmas ” post. A Christmas ornament seemed Christmas-y enough so I sketched it up, took a picture of it with my phone, brought it into Photoshop where I added some color, and then *BOOM* … the graphic was created.

In this age of computer-aided everything (CAD, sketch-up, photoshop, etc) it's refreshing to know there are those in the architectural community who still draw by hand.

This should be enough for me to get the proportions of my outline sketch roughly right. So I did the same on the canvas and sketched out the picture in pencil. I did some watercolour work in the early days of lock down almost a year ago, and since then, the nearest thing has been apple pencil or Samsung stylus or photoshop mouse.

In one part of the tour, these sorts of construction drawings are put up on the wall as a sort of wallpaper and I couldn’t wait ( for the first time ever ) to get to the gift shop at the end of the tour, only to be disappointed that almost nothing of what I wanted to see was included in any of the books made available.
