Description
A start-to-finish guide to architectural rendering in colour. Rather than limiting the book to a particular technique, it covers colour illustration in pen, pencil, marker, brush, and airbrush, explaining the qualities of each. The book begins with a thorough analysis of colour theory, then progresses through a discussion of the basic equipment, media and technique. To demonstrate the effective use of colour in illustration, the authors show first a black-and-white line drawing, then a full-size colour detail, and finally the finished colour drawing. By explaining colour choices, the authors teach how colour can be used to enhance drawings of both interiors and exteriors, which can help enormously in getting commissions.
