Finished a long day of work without much energy left for drawing, so I just grabbed a bread knife for a simple sketch. Â I definitely overdid it on the serrations though; this thing looks like it could cut bone.

At my grandmother’s in Sydney, I was admiring this fantastically comfortable wooden chair (which I’m told is designed for playing bridge). Â The seat back pivots on two dowels, and is 100% awesome and super-comfortable. Â I was told I could eventually have it, but in the interest of not stuffing furniture in the overhead compartment, I figured I’d do some orthographic sketches so maybe I can build one some day.

POST-SCRIPT FROM THE NETHER-REACHES OF TIME AND SPACE:  Keen readers will note no sketch for May 3rd due to an overnight date line crossing. Fear not, sketch fans, for I will experience May 7th — and sketch it — not once, not thrice, but twice!
Okay, seriously — last time with the drill. Â This is the final assignment for the class I’m in. Â Two orthographic sketches, plus one perspective sketch that’s then painted in Photoshop.
Oh, and hey, Hollywood — get to work on the “Firestorm” action trilogy. Â I’ve delivered the titles, now just get one of your typewriter monkeys to churn out a script or two.

Nothing fancy — just more simple practice stuff. Â The idea here is to define a bunch of different forms using shadow rather than a perspective view. Â Some are a little off, but I think for the most part, the shapes come through. Â I’ll look for something more interesting tomorrow.

This is the other half of an assignment I was working on — the orthographic views of the same plane from Sketch #8. Â I think this one better captures the funny kind of stubbiness of this little plane. Â Once again, it’s primarily based off this painting.

My first attempt at orthographic drawing.
