Over the course of 6 weeks I participated on an archaeological dig in Tuscany, Italy. The dig at Poggio Civitate, which has been under excavation for almost 50 years, offered me a unique experience to refine my illustration, measurement, and diagramatic techniques in a way that is accurate and straightforward. I feel the work I completed integrates well with my architectural studies, as it allows me to present my projects in a clear language.
I have presented the drawings I completed in the order they were done, to give a sense of how my technique developed as I got more accustomed to stipling. I worked alongside 3 other extremely talented illustrators, and together we helped document what was being excavated, along with interpreting it or developing a logical context for it. Every work is done on mylar, using rapidograph pens. The scale on each is in centimeters.
