I’ve been talking recently with a client who is a salesman for a national window and door manufacturer.  In addition to new construction, many of his projects are rehabs or remodels of existing homes and commercial buildings.  He expressed that it is often difficult to get a client to buy into a concept merely on his descriptions or sketches.  He sent me a photo of one such project today, and described his vision.  In very short order, I returned the below image to him to assist him in his effort.

In today’s economy, you can’t afford to let a job slip by.  Are you doing everything you can to seal the deal?  If you could use a hand communicating your vision, give me a call!

I was flipping through the latest Northern Express last night and saw a picture I recognized!

It turned out better than I remember it. I think it holds up pretty well next to the photographs on the page.

And here is the original rendering:

I should mention, this is a proposed building on the Boardman River in downtown Traverse City, MI – part of Tim Burden’s Midtown project.  If you’re interested in the building, give him a call!  If you’re interested in a rendering, call me!

Testing some materials, lighting, tree models, etc.   Wanted to see how realistically I could create a “natural” scene.   I’m pretty pleased with this first attempt.  On with the testing!
