Design Drawing Experiences, 2000 Edition

by William Kirby Lockard

Book Overview

An essential tool for students and professionals, this book explicates the step-by-step depiction of reality through perspective, shadow-casting, and entourage. The new edition adds chapters on different applications and ways of integrating hand-drawing with computer coloring and lighting. "Design Drawing Experiences explains what communicating designers do all the time: They draw to realize a thing that doesn't yet exist. . . . the lessons of light, shade, tone, value, texture, and so on are delightful, simple and clearly demonstrated. Perspective drawing is especially well presented and demystified."-- Landscape Architecture

Customer Reviews

Outstanding book for beginner artists' and designers

I am a landscape desinger and was introduced to this book through a landscape architect that I work with. I have been a designer for about 4 years and have never learned how to draw sections or elevations. After reading and completing the exercises in this book I am well on my way to showing section view illustrations for my landscape designs. This isn't a long book, but the exercises are definately worthwhile.
