The Architecture of Landscape
Registration
Roger Mullin
Monday to Wednesday, August 23 – August 25, 2021
10:00am – 4:00pm
The sketch remains one of the most energetic, sophisticated and deeply rooted means to represent architectural space and form. This session invites participants to draw landscape views directly as a means to represent conditions of dwelling in the landscape at a variety of scales. Over several days participants will build and develop drawing skills.
The drawing period involves exploratory work in areas outside the Town of Lunenburg. One morning will be spent on the water sketching a landfall view of a selected coastal village or town. This course is recommended for all levels.
Students should bring:
- Pencil/pen
- Apron (optional)
