Textures more dominant creating greater tactility, and suggesting a specific place.

Drawing into both white space and textured, moving between positive and negative layers.

Movement, drawing from different angles, over laying, idea of the top component of the end of the bridge being lifted, or moved along in a diagonal direction.

Lines, strong diagonals routing the structures, like supports. Building up networks of lines, creating layers that go over and under. Using different weights of line to bring forth particular elements.

Feeling of not being fixed, rather in construction.

Paint flattens surface, heavy and weighted, against textured pieces there is a play between real and flattened mock of the paint.

Opened up bridge end pieces form a net.

Post its- keeping the drawing more open?

Working measuring drawings made at the bridge, 2012.

Measuring drawing of the end part of the bridge, 2012, there are four end pieces, two on each side of the bridge.

The drawing also includes how many bricks across and down the bridge is, and other notations such as descriptions of textures.

Pieces that make up the end features of the bridge, along with some of the components that begin to go over the bridge, foam board and polystyrene, 2012.

Laying out each of the side pieces made in foam board alongside bricks cut and arranged in relation to their layout on the end piece, followed by the sections that together make up the top component that sits on the end piece and components that form the ledge that goes across the bridge.
