This project is an individual project and I am required to develop freehand drawing and develop skills in colouring using any colouring medium. All the choices given are all the famous architects in the world . I would have to come out with a final A3-sized poster drawing and one A4-size drawing of the initial idea and composition. The posted should include title (name of the architect with a subtitle),the portrait or figure of the architect, three prominent buildings designed by the architect and 5-10 line texts to describe the biography,interesting facts or famous quotes of the architect.
The architect that I have chosen is Antoni Gaudi.

To be very honest, I don't know who Antoni Gaudi was but I knew one of his famous buildings which is La Sagrada Familia. Because of this project, I got to know and learn more about the architect behind this famous building. Throughout the process of researching, I discovered a lot of other buildings of Gaudi's . One is Casa Mila and one is Casa Batllo. The highlight of these buildings are they are organically shaped. I also learnt that Gaudi's work is sculptural and his complex buildings are considered biomorphic as well. Till this day, all his famous buildings are the famous tourist attractions in Spain. It's amusing how people back then can think of creating buildings which is organically-shaped and also how they could manage to build the buildings when technology wasn't advanced back then. Beside than exploring the story and buildings of Antoni Gaudi, I also enjoy colouring the buildings. It's fun to use colours to capture the essence and express the genre of the film.
