Rendering

Tuesday, April 14 2009 UTC

It’s a little off my main trajectory here but I started
playing around with renderers for Sketchup models. Here is a render of the model I was working on this weekend:

There is a lot of phase space to play
with here and I don’t want to get lost in it — clearly one can have a
lot of fun with this, but I still want to keep an eye on making actual
paintings. I also really like the kind of renders that SketchUp produces — they look like
engineering or architectural drawings, which I have always loved.

Though I do also like the clay renders, which remind me of architectural sculptures:
