The roofscape of Paris is a “landscape” all its own, with interesting forms from varied rooflines to dormers, upon dormers, and of course, chimneys. I captured those forms exclusively in this drawing and now intimated the building mass with neutral watercolor.
I made the ink drawing while living in Paris for three weeks just after graduating from architecture school at Virginia Tech, invited by my professor to participate in an international design charrette. I used watercolor to interpret and enliven the drawing during pandemic quarantine, Spring 2020.

I'm excited to bring nearly 100 of my architectural Travel Sketches, created in mostly Italy, but also Switzerland, France, Spain, Greece, Hungary and Czech Republic from 1998 - 2012, into a Collection: lines drawn on site now illuminated by watercolor. Together, they reveal my personal evolution in architectural travel sketching and offer a piece of travel art that can remind you of your own memories in place, invite you into these spaces with your own experiential vision.
Thanks for helping to GIVE BACK: I'll donate 5% of the sale of this piece to the College of Architecture and Urban Studies at Virginia Tech for student assistance/scholarship for travel study abroad.
