french artist sketches virtual city

CrazyButcher

saw a report on tv about autism and a focus was on this french artist. he creates a virtual city called urville and has a giant master plan of it sketched. and then paints certain areas in detail...

pretty interesting and truely insane amount of detail work. the website is awful, but some images are cool

I saw a documentary about a young boy with similar abilities/disease a while back. He was mostly sketching Paris vues.

His technique involved no construction nor vanishing points, just 'tracing', with no apparent order. Cool stuff.

It's interesting to see that there is no shading at all, just linework so intricate it creates shading.
