I should mention, the drawing is not to copy but to give me the direction needed to interpret and render what I am seeing in front of me.Item: 403834629125 1972 Wolfgang Weingart TYPOGRAFISCHE MONATSBLÄTTER Manfred Maier Basel Vorkurs. Of course, I have the cello in a completely different position and angle but looking at the drawing steadied me enough to take a deep breath and know that I will be able to do it. The picture above is a photo of the page.
uh oh., I fortunately remembered I had this book and it had a rendering of a cello scroll. As I stared at the cello scroll and thought. The books are technical and this one shows complex lines of perspective and construction. It was expensive then, but the price has pretty much doubled since I bought it. I was smart enough a few years ago to immediately buy a copy of Vol 1, which seemed the most helpful to me. I will add right here that they are out of print and quite pricey. They are a four volume set called Basic Design Principles. When I was in school, our teacher showed us some wonderful books by Manfred Maier. It is a pretty challenging object to render. As I was working, trying to gauge where the scroll of the cello will fit on the paper, I had flashbacks to art school and a particular exercise that included the scroll of a violin. I am working on getting the proportions and angles set. This afternoon I started the preliminary drawing and block in.
