Clark Smith Architectural Rendering has been providing architectural renderings in watercolor & hand mediums since 1992, for an international clientele. We produce lively, colorful, soft pictures that will sell your work.
We offer digital services after the hand rendering is complete. With Photoshop, the rendering can be modified or the design revised as desired. Also, multiple perfect reproductions can be made at any size. We work with our favorite fine art print shop for scanning & prints.
We think that hand rendering can excel digital rendering for Elevations, Sections, Section‑Perspectives, Site Plans, Floor Plans, Sketches, and Vignettes.

Your renderings were a big hit and went along way toward closing the deal- and the ‘GT’ logo on the child with the yellow cap was a great ‘inside’ touch!

We’re so pleased that we were able to use your artistry on another project.....and look forward to seeing them incorporated into the beautiful volume Pentagram is creating.

Your recent renderings proved to be a tremendous sell to the High School design committee. We appreciate your effort and hard work in producing the drawings in so short a time.
