Virtual Environments (ENVS10008_2013_SM1) STUDIO JOURNAL, MA ON LI 172658 Analytical drawing Briefly describe three stages of analytical approach advanced by Kandinsky Kandinsky states there are three major stages of the analytical approach which are the simplification, analysis and transformation of the graphic characteristics which present by the content itself. His concept of analytical drawing method encourage student to see and think logically, try to identify the logic behind a complicated painting, to differ the key element of the drawing then elaborate it’s actual pattern and potential pattern from a single element. In the simplification process, we need to subordinate the whole complex into one simple form; we need to understand the formal characterization of the individual parts of the content, whether both in isolation or in relation to the other parts; then we try to represent the whole construction by the means of the most concise possible schema. Then once the analytical drawing been drafted, we analysis the drawing, we make clear tensions which discovered the structure, which can be represented by means of linear forms. Emphasizing the principle tension by means of broader line, finally indicate the structural network by mean of starting or focal points. Analysis the analytical drawing through different dimensions, it involves a combination of analytical and synthetic processes, calculation and intuition. Finally, transformation means the objects are regarded exclusively in terms in tensions between forces, and the construction limits itself to complexes of lines; Variety of structural possibilities, clear and concealed construction, then exercises in the utmost simplification of the overall complex and of the individual tensionconcise, exact expression.
Apply this analytical drawing directly to the found pattern.

I have applied the analytical thinking process for the found pattern. First of all, I have a lily (flower) picture. After the Photoshop, the image has turned into a 150mm * 150 mm black and white image. I tried to identify one single unit of the image, which is the petal of the lily. The lily is a combination of pedals. Therefore, I identified each pedal as a small triangle. An analytical drawing of the lily pattern is a combination of small triangles. All the small triangles starts from the center of the flower, and the top pedals are pointing to the sun, and bottom pedals pointing to the ground (due to the weight), which with a combination, created a flower blossom figure, which becomes a pattern for the lily pedals.
