Workshop (architectural sketches)

This is a sketch which I did during the workshop. It is made in a 2-point perspective. First, I drew a horizon (vanishing) line and put two vanishing points on it at the edges of the sheet. From these two points I drew the lines of perspective (construction lines). After that, I drew the main lines of the building. I also drew a tile using construction lines. Then I erased construction lines, added details on the building and circled lines of the building and tiles with a black marker. I decided to paint the building with watercolours, but the paper began to deform. Probably because I added too much water. So I removed excess water and dried the drawing. Then I added the shadows with a pencil. In some places I made the shadows darker to convey the volume and keep the focus on the building. I also added trees and silhouettes of people because without it the drawing looked empty. I did it schematically to leave the focus on the building. I think I should not have filled the trees with green and they would not take attention it the drawing.  At the end, I circled the lines with a thicker marker.

I plan to use the skills I got by making this sketch in a two-point perspective for illustrations of my project. I think the sketch drawn in perspective looks more professional and this is especially important for buildings, because they look more realistic and their proportions become clearer.
