RENDERING In Architecture, it is a presentation process of creating two dimensional images or animations showing the attributes of a proposed architectural design.

It can be classified into many categories like Monochromatic Rendering, and Polychromatic Rendering or Mixed Media Rendering.

MIXED-MEDIA RENDERING

In visual art, Mixed-Media refers to an artwork in the making of which more than one medium has been employed. A phrase sometimes used in relationship to mixed media is, "Fat over lean." In other words: "don't start with oil paints. Plan to make them the final layer. When creating a painted or photographed work using mixed media it is important to choose the layers carefully and allow enough drying time between the layers to ensure the final work will have structural integrity. If many different media are used it is equally important to choose a sturdy foundation upon which the different layers are imposed.

Many effects can be achieved by using mixed media. Found objects can be used in conjunction with traditional artist media, such as paints and graphite, to express a meaning in the everyday life. In this manner, many different elements of art become more flexible than with traditional artist media. Those different elements can be revealed by the following chosen types of mixed-media rendering: pencil drawings, pen and ink, kure color, oil pastel and colored pencil rendering.

PENCIL DRAWINGS/RENDERING

Drawing is a form of visual art that makes use of any number of drawing instrument used include graphite, Pencils, Pen and ink

Pencil

is

a writing

implement or art

medium usually

constructed

of

narrow,

solid pigment core inside a protective casing. The case prevents the core from breaking, and also

from marking the users hand during use. Pencils create marks via physical abrasion, leaving behind a trail of solid core material that adheres to a sheet of paper or other surface. They are noticeably distinct from pens, which dispense liquid or gel ink that stain the light color of the paper. Most pencil cores are made of graphite mixed with a clay binder, leaving grey or black marks that can be easily erased. Graphite pencils are used for both writing and drawing, and the result is durable: although writing can usually be removed with an eraser, it is resistant to moisture, most chemicals, ultraviolet radiation and natural aging. Other types of pencil core are less widely used. Charcoal pencils are mainly used by artists for drawing and sketching. Colored pencils are sometimes used by teachers or editors to correct submitted texts but are more usually regarded as art supplies, especially those with waxy core binders that tend to smear on paper instead of erasing. Grease pencils have a softer crayon-like waxy core that can leave marks on smooth surfaces such as glass or porcelain. The most common type of pencil casing is a thin wooden cylinder permanently bonded around the core. Similar permanent casings may be constructed of other materials such as plastic or paper. To use the pencil, the casing must be carved or peeled off to expose the working end of the core as a sharp point. Mechanical pencils have more elaborate casings that support mobile pieces of pigment core, which can be extended or retracted through the casing tip as needed.

In this process, Sketch (Drawing) (redirect from pencil rendering) is a rapidly execute freehand drawing that is not usually intended as a finished as silver point, Graphite, pencil, charcoal or pastel. Primary drawings should be done in this stage as the starting point and the object for rendering. As the pencil drawings are the starting point, the next process should be leveled up to pen and ink rendering as the pencil drawings will be replaced or coated by ink.

PEN AND INK DRAWING/RENDERING

In visual art, pen and ink drawing describes the process of using pens to apply ink to a surface. Pen and Ink drawing techniques are very similar to those used in pencil drawing, but

they will yield a stronger sense of value with the contrasting black on white; that is assuming you are using black ink on white paper.

There are many colored inks we can also use in design drawing, but for the purposes of explaining pen and ink techniques we will concentrate on black ink used on white drawing paper. In order to render pen and ink drawings we will first need a variety in sizes of pens, and drawing paper. You can use a drawing journal or a drawing tablet. The techniques used in pen and ink range from stippling (or stubbing as it is called in pencil drawing) to hatching, cross-hatching, curved lines, wavy lines, and the use of space.

Hatching is a series of small lines about one-fourth inch high. In order to show dark values we pen them in close together. To show lighter values we pen them in further apart.

Cross-hatching is a series of small one-fourth inch to inch horizontal lines crossed by a series of vertical lines.

We can pen in small curved or wavy lines in a succession as in hatching; and by penning them in close together we get the darker values, and by penning them in further apart we get the lighter values.

Stippling is the technique of applying dots on your paper to indicate your values. We can use a very large round pen point or a small round pen point. Many pen and ink drawings are done entirely in stippling. As in the other examples, close together shows darkness and further apart shows lightness.

In this stage, ink coats the pencil drawings to uplift the value of the object or in contrast to the paper/background so that it will be more justified and seen. You just have to trace the drawings using pen. For the shades and shadows, you can use the different techniques as mentioned above.

To add more aesthetic to the drawings, it must have colors so the object will be alive. One type of mixed-media rendering is the Kure color rendering which primarily gives smooth colors to the drawings.

KURE COLOR RENDERING

ZIG Kurecolor is a system designed for use by graphic designers and professional artists. The favourite of professional artists all over the world, Kurecolor markers have long been a popular choice for Graphic Designers, Architects and Product Designers. More

recently Crafters have discovered the benefits of Kurecolor's for smooth and even coloring and the amazing shading and textured effects that can be achieved with the use of the Kurecolor blender pen and solution. Kurecolor's are an alcohol based dye. They are permanent but low odor and Xylene free.

The laydown of the colour is smooth, even and translucent and they're available in 118 colours. The Kurecolor Dual Tip has exactly the same ink and tip sizes

(1mm) fine and broad (6.5mm) as the Kurecolor Twin S, but it has a larger, rounded barrel. They are Basic, Brilliant, and Natural, Dull, Pale, Deep, Grey Colours, Cool Greys, Warm Grays. Each marker is colour coded on the barrel and on the cap, making the colour you want easy to find without wasting time. The rendering process with KureColor marker focuses on whats lighter than the intended output color. It has 2 parts: the broad and fine. In this stage, you just have to hold the marker lightly and move it smoothly within the area of the drawing that you want to color.

After the marker rendering, we go to the depth of the picture with the use of the colored pencils and oil pastels.

OIL PASTEL RENDERING

Oil pastel or oil crayon is a painting and drawing medium in stick from a mixture of pigments, non-drying oil and wax binder.

Oil pastels can be used wet or dry on any support: paper, board, canvas, glass, metal, and wood, even rock. Some surfaces work better with a coat of gesso, for preservation or more tooth, but you can be confident in using an oil pastel over any kind of found objects in a collage or mixed media piece. In this process, oil pastel is being used for the coloring of the object. It gives heavy texture to the drawing. It can be smudged by rubbing the finger to it on the paper and or using cottons and other things that can be used for smudging. Smudging is for the smooth effect applied on the drawings. For the effective coloring of the subject, the nipa hut with coconut tree beside it, it is better to use colored pencils for the enhancements.

COLORED PENCIL RENDERING

Colored pencils consist of a wooden shaft that is filled with colored pigment. This pigment is held together by a waxy binder, that when spread over a surface transfers color.

Colored pencil rendering includes the main material, the colored pencils whether be classic or watercolor colored pencil which can be washed. In this process, color and finish the drawing for the enhancements such as in shadows and shades by using other shades of the colors. Yellow green can be mixed or shaded to color green for the effective appearance of the object so there will be depth on the object.

CONCLUSION

The mixed-media rendering involves different types and processes as well. In the nipa hut rendering, the subject of the project, first to do is the pencil drawing of the subject itself. Here, the basic shapes, lines, and other figures are being drawn until coming up to the final drawing. For the more justified and emphasized details and appearance, pen and ink rendering occurs. Next is for the coloring techniques. Kure color rendering involves smooth effect or texture and sketchy looks on the drawing. Here, it is being used in the sky. After the smooth effect is the texturized effect of the oil pastel. Lastly, colored pencil rendering is commonly used for the finishing and enhancements on the shades and shadows so that the drawings will be alive and beautiful.
