Binns House


Here is my latest graphite drawing. This is the house that belonged to my grand father's sister on my dad's side. They were fairly well to do and the house was pretty fancy in it's time. This is the best side of the house now. The other side has a collapsed roof with a huge tree growing up through it. I took photos of it this past summer and got poison ivy for my troubles but I got a good feel for the house as I walked around it. It helps me to draw a building if I can establish some sort of feeling for it or connection to it.
