Pen and Ink Travel Sketches

Beschreibung

The beautiful and skillfully drawn pen and ink illustrations in this volume are travel sketches by the New Mexico architect Terrance J. Brown, FAIA—recognized internationally for his contributions toward promoting cultural sensitivity in his architectural designs for native American communities. The drawings in this volume were sketched during his travels over the past fifty years. They include many drawings of New Mexico and also meticulous drawings of Mayan ruins, emotive illustrations from his Vietnam war journals and classic European sites sketched as a college student traveling in Europe. His eye for detail, for capturing the essence of scenes and settings, and for expressing the qualities of both the man-made tableaus and nature, is remarkable. We believe readers will be inspired by the way he interprets his world with simple ink lines and be encouraged to try their own hand at drawing everyday sights around them.
