Stephanie Armbruster

Often a reflection on the postindustrial urban landscape, my portfolio is an exploration of urban spaces, populations and visual textures.

For Thing-A-Day 2011, I've been working on an experimental drawing project. So far, I've been closing my eyes, thinking about an urban location, and drawing whatever comes to mind using continuous line. The goal is to see if what I remember translates at all through the drawing process.

For more art, check out my website at www.stephaniearmbruster.com. Sadly, no blue lobsters, just more paintings.

Thinking about relationships.  I always feel bad for the building that get torn down just as the one next door gets a facelift.

I'm happy to be able to post these now that my scanner is working again!  The hospital building near my studio is being torn down and it got me thinking about demolition...

Ok, so I admit I slacked off.  The end of this week was WAY too busy to squeeze in anything else - even just a drawing a day.  I made up for lost time today with 3 more sketches; 2 more to follow tomorrow.

Continuing the exercise of blind continuous line drawings or urban landscapes from memory.  This one is a street scene. Rainy night.
