3 PERTH ROAD
The first challenge of this project was working out how to work effectively as a team. We decided to split the door into sections and designate a piece to each group. My group was working on the pillars and so after taking photographs and making quick sketches we took measurements of everything and linked this to our drawings.
For detail of the spiral at the top of the pillar we made rubbings and printed life-size photos to trace.
As a group we began drawing the doorway on Monday starting at the top of the entrance and working downwards. Some members of the group worked on drawing whilst others called out measurements and we rotated for lunch breaks. One team member also worked on a drawing with every measurement on it for reference and our portfolios.
The final part was deciding on how to render the drawing. We decided that we should keep a recurring theme - whilst using various media we should stick with dark black and white colour and some blue midtones. One picture was e-mailed to the group and used as a reference for drawing and showing where the light came from.
One team member worked in the workshop making a bracket to hang the sheet from the balcony.
THE FINAL PRODUCT
I reckon everyone was pleased with how it turned out!
