i have been ultra busy with finalizing my UBC application. I want to finish the Spuraway Project a.s.a.p. so that i can get to printing and assembling my portfolio, and using that project as one of the main entries.
Therefore i have been working for obscene amounts of hours on the Spuraway project . Last week my wrists hurt from walking around Spuraway all day while carrying my laptop and plotting things directly onto VectorWorks. I find the project goes much faster when i am standing right in front the thing i am plotting.
So if there is no precipitation, i am most likely walking around my complex, carrying my laptop and my measuring tape. When the weather is rainy i am inside, taking care of the details and trying to make everything look nice and readable, because in my mind, this is crucial.
i wanted to write this blog after searching for VectorWorks forums, because i needed symbols for a boulder retaining wall. i came across a dozen or so VectorWork Galleries - website which showcase people's designs on VectorWorks. There were some remarkable drawings on there, which can be considered art in their own right.
My favourite gallery was this one:

i took a VectorWorks training course and one of the 5 other students was a stage designer. Until tonight i had a hard time understanding how VectorWorks can be used for stage design, but upon visiting the "Lighting" gallery, i learned just how manipulable and versatile this program is.
i thought i was proficient at VectorWorks, boy was i ever wrong!
