Drawing Inside

In this task we drew different perspectives inside a building. The reason for this was for us to practice and improve our realism drawings.



My first drawing was of a wall on the ground floor and I wanted to draw this because the ceiling goes in and drops a couple of times so I decided that this would be good practice for depth drawing. I drew in pen and then shaded in pencil to show the shadows that gives the drawing some 3D depth to it. I am very happy with this drawing as I did a good job of showing where the ceiling goes in and the rest of its depth.




My second drawing was of two people: one standing outside with a carrier bag I could see from a window and the other walking along a corridor on the first floor I could see across the balcony. I took a different approach and drew in felt tip which I enjoyed and was different to the usual pencil. I agree I struggled with drawing the features of a person but I did well drawing the overall shape and their hair. The guy walking along the balcony was behind glass that covered the lower part of his body and it was hard to show this with felt tip. The glass had a tint of green so I decided to keep his outline of legs and colour the glass in green to show what it was. Overall I am happy with this drawing but in the future if I was to improve this drawing I would go back and draw their heads and the hand carrying the carrier bag.

I am more happier with this drawing session than the last when we did drawings outside around the town because I tried a different technique of drawing and I think the drawings look better than the last.
