The Art of Architectural Drawing: Imagination and Technique

Schaller, Thomas Wells

Van Nostrand-Reinhold

Thomas Schaller, the foremost watercolorist in architecture in the world and winner of the prestigious Hugh Ferriss Memorial Prize, has now revised and expanded his classic, award-winning Architecture in Watercolor for this paperback edition. Watercolor is enjoying a renaissance in architecture - because of its unsurpassed drama, emotion, and subtlety, and its marvelous painterly qualities. No medium excels watercolor's power to enhance competition entries and convey the qualities of unbuilt buildings. This book takes you through basic and advanced watercolor techniques, illustrated by the works of some of the medium's modern masters.

Tom Schaller has amassed a wealth of material and references to engage the reader with aspects from history, perception and psychology, fine arts painting, architectural illustration, and on and on. This is a very inspirational work.its a winner! --Harold Linton.
