Description

This was nearly a month long drawing assignment and I still had to spend endless hours out of class (and an all nighter working from a photo) to finish it. I sat at a window on the 7th floor of my school's building and did a deep space perspective of the city. Unfortunately because the background is so light, all the detail has been lost in the photo. This is MUCH more impressive in real life. I consider it to be the best drawing I've done so far. A lot of the proportions are off but the perspective is pretty much perfect, all lines lead to the vanishing point. (and I NEVER used a ruler, my hand has gotten very steady) I was pissed off when my teacher gave me an A- (he's a very tough grader) Probably because I didn't put ENOUGH detail... -_-

Nice.

A month? I've got a piece I've been drawing on and off for about a year.
