LANDSCAPE GESTURES – FILBERG LODGE

  • Charcoal
  • Graphite-slow on the paper
  • Charcoal
  • Graphite stick – slow on the paper for a gesture drawing and it doesn’t feel at all robust.
  • Ink – brush moves quickly on paper. Need to reload brush.

  • Conte – also slow. Requires multiple passes to get anything other than thin lines.
  • Marker
  • Chalk pastels – flow more easily.

10 SKETCHES

Sketch #1 – Graphite. View looks elevated, which was not my intention.
Graphite and chalk pastel
Charcoal block and chalk pastel. Charcoal doesn’t allow for any fineness or shading. Perspective is good here.
Chalk pastel
Marker and pastel pencil.

Above is more the look I think I am aiming towards. The location lends itself to classical lines and style, so the refinement of both the marker and the pastel pencils suit this well.

PROCESS WORK & PLANS

  • This is the rough plan I will use and how I will incorporate the two architectural drawings into the larger landscape.
  • Partially done background drawing done with chalk pastel on 1/4″ baltic birch plywood covered with gesso and sanded. Size is 22″ x 55″.
  • 1/8″ birch plywood and Stonehenge paper cutouts for architectural drawings. Paper was glued onto plywood.
  • Cutouts were then glued onto background drawing.
