Artist Elizabeth Patterson‘s hyperreal pencil drawings of rainy windshields.

Pencil drawings.

Each one is inspired by of several of her own photographs but the finished pieces are considerably more detailed, immediate and dramatic than the source material.

More of her work can be seen at her website, and also here.

Due to the DART not operating between Dun Laoghaire [Co Dublin] and Bray [Co Wicklow] this morning, people were walking from Sandycove to Dun Laoghaire along the ‘metals’.

I followed suit, and by the People’s Park, we came across this lovely scene (above)…there are about 8 to 10 people shimmying along the metal fence to avoid the massive puddle in the middle of the metals!  Apologies for lack of Instagrammage!


Rain Shield, created by Taiwanese designers Lin Min-Wei & Liu Li-Hsiang, is constructed around a single curved steel wire and telescopic rod, has no sharp edges and folds away into a 180mm disc.

It also looks like your only man for the sideways rain.

Curse you, sideways rain.
