Research Point.

When browsing the web for interesting images of drawings of interiors, this drawing caught my eye.

I found out that it had been created by Albert Hadley, 

I read a bit about him, 

he was an American interior designer and decorator, (1920 to 2012)

So not really a fine artist (so to speak) by profession,

But he did lots of sketches and drawn designs, which I like very much, 

they seem so quick and fluid, yet even so, he doesn't lose the perspective and I really get a sense of space.

Here are some more of his drawings and designs.

But returning to this drawing,

I think, the way he just put in the bookshelves in that red colour is so effective and striking. 

He is very clever at making a drawing look detailed with very little effort, I mean, the way he put in those short fast lines indicating the books on the shelves, 

interesting how if you take a small section of a shelf away from the rest, to look at, it makes very little sense, 

but when put all together the viewer sees the pattern a bookshelf makes and doesn't question the way the books bear very little resemblance to books. 

I am very interested in how this works, how every part of a drawing doesn't have to look right separately, but only as a whole. 

Another artist I found, in a book, 

called Glynn Boyd Harte, I couldn't find very much about him. but I like his work too.

I really like the effect of bright continental sunlight he achieves in these views through a window.The shadows are very dark and he uses a lot of blue and purple to contrast with the bright sunny yellows. I also like his use of negative spaces and the treatment of the window panes with almost abstract patterns of the reflections  in each pane.
