Of late I've been trying to improve my sketching, which means I've been down in Galt at the architecture school taking a course with some MArch students.Three hours a week you can find me out in the sunshine doodling some buildings with a ballpoint and a 7x10 pad. At first I was somewhat put off by the idea of using a cheap old ballpoint, but it is actually revealing itself to be quite the handy tool. As a side project I've been spending some time developing my B&W photo skills (get it...developing) in the architecture school's dark room. Thanks to the great help I've gotten there I can now develop my own film and make my own prints. The shot above is my Spears smoother plane, a great tool...and a pretty good photograph.
