Strokes of Art

In this age of high-tech and digital technology, something done by hand rather than by machine seems to be a novelty nowadays. Computer generated renderings in 3D are widely used by architects and designers for their presentations, sometimes with a walk-through feature that create a vivid impression of how a project will look upon completion. Personally though, especially with interior renderings, they seem to lack the depth and texture that can be seen on manual renderings. That's why it's refreshing to see these beautiful renderings by Dario Marcelino.

Dario Marcelino is an architecture graduate from Mapua Institute of Technology. He was previously based here in Manila, wherein he worked as a rendering artist and junior designer for Atelier Almario under Ms. Ivy Almario herself. He has handled projects for interior renderings locally and internationally. He left in 2003 and pursued his career in Canada, where he is currently based. Dario specializes in the dry medium such as pen, ink and markers and sometimes dabbles in the mixed use of digital coloring and manual drawings. The following are samples of his works.
