Freehand Illustration for Artistic Architectural Design

Start by getting to know your teacher, Eduardo Bajzek. He talks about his career so far, his main influences in the world of architectural illustration, and shares more information about the course project: Country House.

Then explore the materials you need for illustrating. Your teacher shows you some architectonic studies to help you get inspired and teaches some drawing fundamentals to use in your project like planes, solids, tonal values, shadows, and perspectives.

Through the Country House project, Eduardo teaches you to sketch and produce technical drawings freehand, which you can then use as a template and modify it to suit your particular needs. Learn to transfer your drawings by tracing with India ink and finally, use watercolors, starting with the general elements and finishing off with the details, for a convincing and realistic artistic expression.

See how to refine your illustrations by adding human figures and landscape elements. Eduardo lets you in on the secrets to creatively presenting your artwork to clients. Now you have all the skills to create architectonic drawings and illustrations that overflow with color and personality.
