in vertical landscape generally we can choose small plants which are climber and creeper supporting with net making with bamboo or wooden frame . watering is critcial part here.

Thanks for the heads up Clay. I’ve forwarded this to my unemployed alumni listserv. They will appreciate it. ~A

Two answers here…..I wish I was going to Vegas…I mean LABASH. I have an interest in bringing here to Athens but it looks like Tri-State is heading my way to help keep me busy. Of course you know I’m more the merrier.
Current grads….the only openings I’ve had are for internships. I’ve only had about three hit my desktop on entry-level. More…[Read more]

Anyone going to LABASH?

barlow, I would really be interested in seeing what European style sketches are and what one would percieve is the common american style of drawing?

Anyway we can get some quick sketch technique (marker, colored pencil, pastel etc) and rendering tutorials on here ?

tim-

you bring up a good point..atmosphere is difficult to convey in hand drawn work. all I can think of at the moment is airbrush..

anyone know the best way to convey “god rays” in drawn perspectives? thanks

I know many of you are concerned with the cost of Labash….well let me reassure you about what you are getting for the money!!!

Nick,

Thanks!

Eric-

I got your message. I need to make some evergreens for a plan tomorrow as fate would have it. I’ll post my steps here or shoot you a message.

Eric,

I couldn’t tell you how to do it using drop shadows, but I could offer some good advice on doing it manually in photoshop without creating numerous layer copies and keeping the file size down.

send me a message if you still need help with this and I’ll explain some simple tricks.

Does anyone have good method for doing evergreen shadows in photoshop with the drop shadow?

James Richards is great. I love his simple color palette. He blends darker colors in his lighter colors to make things look cohesive. For instance, he used carmine red and true blue (i think it was true blue) prismacolor color pencils over cream to create this really nice effect. So, the cream hardscape and buildings really popped after i tried to…[Read more]
