“Ci sono due tipi di persone:
chi ti vuole e chi ha scelto.
Per la prima sei un capriccio,
l'altra invece non può fare a meno di te. E credetemi c'è una grossa differenza.”
— Vincenzo Cannova

Here are two of my most recent drawings. I'm continuing to make highly colorful pieces, but for these I wanted to try working in a relatively monochromatic mode. The first was done using colored pencils and pens, while the other was just one colored pencil. It's been interesting to do these and see the resurgence of some mark-making and the application of negative space I mostly haven't used since doing large-scale landscape drawings in grad school.

My most recent "finished" drawing, plus four sketches from this month. I think it's interesting to see classical elements appear in unlikely places. Simply by their situating they can appear odd; or, sometimes, their characteristics have also been distorted. For the finished piece, I heightened the scale and tenor of those appearances for a "mannerist", barn-like edifice, rippling with rustication, apertures, and other incisions recalling various classical devices. With pieces like these, I'm emphasizing the formal aspect of play in the purely visual coding of architecture -- a kind of play often under-emphasized or excluded in the literature on 20th- and 21st-century "rational" architecture, or in the architecture itself.
