Portfolios and Resumes – Design Strategies 12 years, 8 months agoIf possible Luke, I would recommend travel sketches over travel photography. I find sketching to be a more sought after, rare skill. Furthermore, sketches reveal more about what you are looking at and how you interpret a scene. I’ve brought personal sketchbooks to interviews that demonstrate the range of activities I do, where I’ve been, and my…[Read more]

Portfolios and Resumes – Design Strategies 13 years agoKai, I would say keep it to one page. That is what I always try to do. Cutting out something less important every time I have something to add to it. Although if you feel you have enough pertinent material to add, do so. But definitely no longer than 2 pages. I personally like the one pager.
Might take a while, all I can say is stick with it if…[Read more]

BeLoose Graphic Workshop 13 years, 3 months agoSimple Tips of Applying Colors to a Drawing:
Do you know when we stare at a color (Blue for example), we actually saw the opposite color of the color wheel (Orange), these blue and orange colors are known as complementary colors in the color theory (see below left for a test).

Therefore two colors (Blue-Orange, Red-Green, and Yellow-Purple)…[Read more] -

BeLoose Graphic Workshop 13 years, 5 months agoHi Brian, Thanks for your response, somehow I missed it until now. Vellum is a bit pricey, so I ended up buying Canson light weight bond which works a lot like marker paper. I like your trace on foamcore style too. How do you mount it?

BeLoose Graphic Workshop 13 years, 7 months agoHmm, can’t find a way to search these posts.
Has anyone found a place that sells marker paper on rolls? Alternatively… does anyone use vellum with ChartPak markers?
I’m sick of bond sucking up my markers, but I need large format. Thanks!
PS Hi Mike & Brian! -

Portfolios and Resumes – Design Strategies 13 years, 10 months agoSami,
I’d recommend using ‘landscape designer’ (I’ve seen this most often) or maybe even ‘recent landscape architect graduate’. If you use ‘landscape architect in-training’ check w/your state registration board to make sure that there aren’t any ‘conflicts’.
As far as looking for jobs: the ones that generally apply to college grads would be ‘…[Read more] - Load More
