This week’s Sketchy Saturday top 10 Welcome to another fantastic edition of Sketchy Saturday, where we have taken everything you have sent us in, filtered through them and picked what we believe to be the top 10. This week we had our first ever Sketchy Saturday video entry which is well worth a watch. This is presentation format that we would love to see more of as it allows another dimension to the presentation of the sketch. I think you’ll agree all the entries offer something different, with a diverse blend of styles and approaches that illustrate the artist’s imagination and perception. 10. by Rigan Satria A.

“This sketch has been made to try out drawing techniques at my work with students. I started with a raw computer model of the building which I printed and drew over by hand. Than I coloured it with water colour. The last was made in the computer. The pool is dedicated to all my students and to a friend of mine which needs urgent holidays.” 8. by Amaury Martins Neto, landscape architect/ agronomist engineer , São Paulo – Brasil

“I made this drawing to show how the reception garden will look like when it gets finished for my clients in São Paulo. The space includes a garden of native vegetation, pebbles to give texture and a water feature to give relaxing atmosphere to the users! The drawing was made on A3 paper, inked lines with multiple sizes of black ink pen, and rendered with copic markers and post production in photoshop”. 7. by Rehai Aytek Akçakaya, Landscape Architect “In the first meeting with our (modern peyzaj) customers, we show them concept projects. We create the concept projects with hand drawings. These may be 3D and Plan Sketches. This is a Residential area project. We designed paths, a children’s playground , sports area , recreation areas and swimming pools in this project. All of the landscape area will be built on an underground car park. Because of this, we have very little soil height. Inside the garden you can see some roman style columns and fountains. Located in Istanbul, Beylikdüzü – TURKEY”6. by Marcin Wodniczak, landscape Architect from Poland

“I made sketch as a design, to make sure a potential customer hires me as his contractor to make the garden around his summer house in Denmark. It’s made by using a real photo as the basis. The space is located in Vejle Fjord, Denmark”. 5. by Monika Billiková, Slovakia

“I started doing sketches during lessons at my school- Slovak university of agriculture. Nowadays, Im still studying landscape architecture, I’ve just finished my first degree. However, this sketch was created in my free time,not at school. Its a kind of relaxation for me. I created my own style- it reflects my me. I usually use common black felt pen- brand centropen with thickness 0.1 and 0.5. In this case, it’s supplemented with a sepia tone”. 4. by Oana Chiriac, landscape architect and artist, Bucharest city, Romania. “The sketch was made for a client to propose the natural atmosphere in how he can treat the entrance of his garden. It was made on tracing paper with the original picture in the back of it, for keeping the human scale. The garden is quite big, 1 ha, and it is located in Turnu Magurele city- Romania. The only material proposed is for the stairs that lead to the entrance of the house and it is white concrete to go along with the texture of the house. The stairs are imbedded with Thymus plants for releasing a pleasant smell when walking on them. Other elements proposed are statues from iron/steel and different other materials”.

“The sketch was created with pen, marker, and pastel to help raise money for a sculpture garden at Mississippi State University. The concept was to develop a creative environment where students and faculty could relax. It was done as a volunteer project while in my last year of school (2001)”. 2. by Farnaz Dehghani, painter,architect, Iran

“Sketching is like a poem, for me feeling the senses, hearing the sounds of the space starts when I begin to draw with a simple pen,the moment that I begin to communicate with earth,ground,and air for creating the idea is fabricating a villa for an architect ,a place for work and living. The house is not only a place you live, but it is where you make memories, it should be alive like it is breathing. Location: Tehran, Iran. Material ink,marker”.

“This drawing is part of our company proposal for a mixed-use development project in Vienna, Virginia. I tried to envision the space, elements and functions of the area in a way that would give the people more use of the public spaces. It is a freehand sketch by fine line pen on to tracing paper. After scanning, I used Photoshop for more highlight color to understand better the details.”
