drawing | underwear

barbara suggested underwear for buildings, as i was talking about my river project that needs yet another catch-up {weeks are too short!}. i regularly encounter houses that desperately need dressing up, having falling prone to a change of mind on the owners' part.
this house here has been sitting in the nude for years now. in abandon, it almost becomes beautiful again, in its bare aerated concrete roughness. underwear for stefanie this weekend. river update

  3. As nude as is possible, your the only one that I'd know who changed that by your drawings about houses. So it all comes together and mayby is less more?

  6. a nude house. as in pur. waiting to come up with a million chances. unless they're constantly missed. the house will fade. taking all the chances with it. a great metaphore.

  8. I love you sketch and your ideas. The house has a certain personality to it in its 'nudeness' but a nice coat of paint would perk her up much like a pretty camisole or I guess, more like a dress. :>)

  9. Nice Nadine! I was drawn to this drawing earlier when you post all of them together- so cool to see where it comes from
    very revealing if I may say so ;)

  10. Now that's cool! A naked house...pure walls waiting to be dressed. This is poetry again, my dear!

    By the way: no plans yet for next year! So please come around, I'll be there... :-)
