Week 11 - Urban Landscape Drawing
These images were created using soft pencils and they focus on studying the techniques behind urban landscape drawing.
The first drawing shows an interesting composition and an implied line which follows the curve of the pond. Perspective isn't that obvious and was focused on mostly for the buildings in the background ( two point perspective). The detailing is done in an impressionistic manner, due to the complexity of the original scene. The shading gives a good sense of depth, especially with the main building of the drawing.
The image on the right shows a fast sketch of a scene with a single point perspective - the vanishing point being located far in the background. The original scene was highly detailed but the silhouettes of the building and lights are contoured well. The composition is appealing as there are several points of interest in the drawing. The background however is almost completely missing from the drawing, and other buildings should have been detailed as well for a better depth effect.
