Description

I'm fascinated with the way that I know some details of Harvard Square very well, and other details not at all, even though I walk by them all the time. The shops on Mass Ave. especially, I really struggled to remember the names of. Also, after thinking I had scaled everything really well, I realized I didn't have enough room for the River OR the Quad. Go figure. I loved walking around the square after I had finished most of my sketch, because it felt like parts of my drawing were coming to life, and parts were going horribly wrong. All in all, a great look at how we think about space in general. I look forward to more assignments like this one!!
