Week 11 - Urban Interiors: Modern



This drawing took 30 minutes and this for some reason it looks blue, as it is taken from a mobile camera??? Moving on, this is a good drawing of a modern building as you can see the big curve going inward as where the entrances are. It is has quite good value although you it is hard to see the shades on the building. It has good foreshortening happening in the buildings at the back. Although the building are not complete. The shadow of  the building looks good. Although it can be a bit distracting from the the building.

Week 10 - Urban Interiors: Classical



This drawing took one hour. There is a great foreshortening of the inner and outer arcs and the huge wall that  is taken almost of the of the drawing. There is really good detail on the big wall and the pillar right in the middle. The composition is not bad but could be a little more better if the pillar was not right in the middle, but due to the complexity of foreshortening, it seems as though the composition is not does not really matter as much. However, it is properly shaded and has a nice sense of depth but it could do with more shading around the walls.

Week 9 - Non-Human Anatomy


This is a 15 minute drawing of an eagle and it can be seen that there is a good sense of tonal value as you can see from the wings of the bird is more dark than the bird itself to give the effect of the wings held tight toward it's body. The beak look very well drawn and the shades look good. As it the eagle had a lot of feathers, the constant scribbles can make out the illusion of what it has become. Good muscle structure of the neck and how the feather slopes downwards as it goes towards the body from the neck. It could have been great if the eagles feet could be fitted in but looks like there was no space.



This a an amazing drawing of the yak in terms of shade, structure and posture. The fur of the yak from the upper back grows upward and out and as you gradually come down the the side the fur grows downwards. This shows a good sense of interpretation and value as the hair looks rather dark from the yak's front. The legs could have done with more detail though. However, a really good drawing of the yak.
