how is this done?(looks to me like an overworked blackandwhite copy..)
is this your architect- friend?

No not the architect. He told me its a photograph from his cell phone filtered in photoshop. This raises an interesting point that I'm thinking about a lot: what is a drawing? I've been drawing a lot with a brush recently, and with paint even, but I still regard them more as drawings and not paintings. What about you illustrations? Do you see them as drawings?

i think the minute i use brushes and acrylic, i consider it as a painting...but i use the brush-pen a lot so i'm inbetween the chairs.dont know. when i once handed in a half-drawing -half-painting -pic at the anonymous -drawings-competiton, i was rejected because my images were considered as paintings...
but i have no problem with beeing in the "grey-zone" :) we should invent a new expression for the not yet defined drawing-painting -thing!
