This is an urban landscape drawing in pencil on A3 paper which
took 30 minutes to complete.
It shows a two-point perspective scene in which the
horizon line is located on the lower half of the page, and the two vanishing
points are at the left and right of the picture. The construction lines and
measuring helped with positioning the building on the page and keeping the
proportions right. Some of the orthogonal lines in this drawing aren’t well
made, for example on the upper right corner of the picture where the edges at
the top of the building aren’t pointing towards the left vanishing point. The
image feels a bit unbalanced, because of the amount of detail on the right side
of the page, and the lack of it on the left side. This composition creates
points of interest on the left side of the paper. The main focus of this
drawing was to study the principles of perspective, and therefore details such
as windows or shadows were just lightly sketched.
