May 13


Oscar and I decided to sleep in and get into work at 10:30 we did some warm up drawing extra sizes. We started with contour sketching a plant and using a sheet of plexiglass to turn 3d objects into 2d drawings. After getting something to eat and sketching the restaurant while we ate Oscar and I went to the Marry Queen of the world cathedral. My dad wanted us to do a basic floor plan sketch just getting the general shape of the church and the big things inside. We also focused on sketching a wall or a statue we liked. After being in church for a while we decided to get some fresh air and go to the park close by for a challenge. The challenge was to sketch the bridge inside the park, my dad has tried before but it is a tough bridge to get all the details and the correct shape on to paper. My dad then showed us the Sunlife building and broke down the different components on the outside of the building like the use of columns. We then walk back to the office to do some work on our indoor bridge design and watch a short film on the history of the Eames chair and furniture.

  Day 11 We started off our work day with our warm up sketches to get ready for a challenging task my dad has asked us to do. We are taking our 3d drawing skills to the next step with sketching lighit fixtures around my house. We drew how the lighit fixture hung from the ceiling, the basic shape with some deatials and, how the lighit was shining off the fixture. Oscar and I then watched Dark city taking active notes and seeing how the buildings and the structures set the mood for the movie.  Hours 6

 May 19 Oscar and I went to my cottage to get out of the city for a little bit. While we were there we did our normal sketching warm-ups before we did the assignment my dad assigned for us to do. My dad wanted us to do a dollhouse sketch for our cottage. This was one of the more challenging sketches we’ve done yet. We had to cut from the master bedroom on the top floor to the living room and then to the basement with the indoor basketball court. 6.5 hours

 May 20 My Friday morning began with my departure from home and on to Toronto where I participated in a weekend of practices for the macabia basketball team. I made my way to the train station where I planned out what I was going to do during the 5-hour train ride. Firstly, I began the ride by sketching the floor plan of a train cart and was happy with what I was able to come up with after I was wrapped up with the final product. I then watched an hour and a half worth of Frank Gehry's master class. I learned a lot about architecture and the tedious process of perfecting an idea that can ultimately turn into something much bigger than one might think. Lastly, I spent the remainder of the train ride sketching potential architectural masterpieces and watching videos on how an architect thinks when beginning a project. 5 hours
