drawing and thinking about.

dams.

This is the Inguri Dam in Georgia. I like how they block the landscape and enhance it at the same time. They are really eye catching. I'm doing a series on dams, train trestles and bridges. All of the structures are left white or really lightly painted and the rest of the landscape gets painted in around the pencil lines of the structure, the opposite of how they are actually built. They depend on the architecture of the landscape, I mean, thats why they are placed in these ideal locations, structurally they depend on the landscape, but aesthetically they suck up a lot of space and attention.
