BEFORE AND AFTER SKETCHES
Many of Jim’s drawings from community planning projects are made using an effective “before and after” drawing technique that begins with a digital photograph that is printed and sketched over with ink on lightweight tracing paper and colored with markers. By presenting both the existing conditions photo along side of Jim’s drawing showing what the subject might look like with site or architectural improvements, community members can easily understand the creative idea and positive impact it might have on the property.
