I couldn’t be more excited to start 3D modeling! SketchUp is such a nice and straightforward program to use. Going through all of the tutorials online, and going through so many of the tools in class is really helpful. I have just been messing around in SketchUp and becoming familiar with the different options and possibilities it offers. The upcoming assignment is going to be really interesting and a completely different project from what I have ever worked with. Modeling and working with 3D dimensional models is what I have been waiting for! I am so excited to get more familiar with this particular aspect of design.
Because we are now shifting towards looking at architecture and 3D aspects, I went ahead and just searched through different pictures of buildings and cityscapes. The second image above was created by Aidan O’Rouke, and encompasses creative ideas of what is typically a very analytical field. Expressive lines and bold colors dominate this piece and it just caught my eye. To see more paintings like this one go to http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://www.michaelgutteridge.com/2033-b-CIS_Buildings_Night_59_.jpg&imgrefurl=http://www.michaelgutteridge.com/html/karl.html&usg=__YemUPUtsO16MkIP4wuVoOe1tceU=&h=782&w=999&sz=259&hl=en&start=3&um=1&tbnid=ekHD45Ry0WL9sM:&tbnh=117&tbnw=149&prev=/images%3Fq%3Dbuildings%2Bat%2Bnight%26hl%3Den%26um%3D1
The third image shows a very different view of the same subject, the city. A photograph with is very linear also incorporates a wide range of color. The pairing of straight lines, and realism with color allows for a bridge to connect the creative and realistic portions of what we see all around us.
