Falling Water - Pencil Drawing

By MissJacksonMT | My Art Journey | 29 Feb 2020

This is a pencil drawing of Frank Lloyd Wright’s design known Falling Water. It is located in Mill Run, Pennsylvania which is approximately 43 miles from Pittsburgh. In 1935, Wright designed the structure which was to be the family home of Liliane and Edgar Kaufman Sr., owner of Kaufmann’s Department Store.

Following Edgar Sr.’s death in 1955, Edgar Kaufmann Jr. inherited Fallingwater, continuing to use it as a weekend retreat until the early 1960s. In 1963, Edgar Jr. donated the property to the Western Pennsylvania Conservancy. It attracts more than 160,000 visitors from across the world each year.

This was drawn on Strathmore, acid-free paper with Koh-I-Noor woodless pencils. Thanks for checking out my drawing.

I've drawn ever since I could remember, but it's mostly been just a casual hobby. I started drawing more seriously after my Grandmother was diagnosed with cancer. I spent the time during her treatments to relax with art.

My Art Journey

My goal is to share my love of art and to grow and learn from other artists on this platform. I've drawn ever since I could remember, but it's mostly been just a casual hobby. I started drawing more seriously after my Grandmother was diagnosed with cancer. I spent the time during her treatments to relax with art. I create digital art, as well as pencil and pastel art on traditional canvases. I currently focus mainly on landscapes and architecture.
