Andrew Plank
Architectural Illustrator "I call myself an illustrator and not an artist because I strive to make a direct representation of the scene in front of me rather than to interpret it in a creative or an idiosyncratic way." "As an architect, I find it therapeutic to draw scenes including buildings because the process of drawing is not only a means to an end - ie, the end of producing a picture - but also an end in itself in that the drawer is forced into finding out more about the detail and proportion of a building by virtue of having to gaze at it for long periods of time, sometime almost to the point of mermorisation !" "These limited edition views of Bewdley, Chaddesley Corbett, Ombersley & Wolverley are favourite local views of mine and ones which I first tackled in pencil. I was therefore pleased to have an opportunity of drawing these scenes with the extra dimension of watercolour." These limited edition
prints (500) each measuring [31 x 22 cms / 13x 9 ins] are available direct from
the artist - or they can be ordered via Andrew Plank B.A. B.Arch. R.I.Bd. Chartered Architect |
