Week 10 :Classic Architecture, Interior

This week the theme has been based on classic architecture and interiors, this is a very interesting subject due to the fact that most buildings with classic interiors are very detailed. This makes them difficult to draw without planning. The medium for the drawings above was artistic markers. This made it easy to get the perspective correct by using the lighter markers to plan out the scene and then the darker makers to finalise it.
The image on the left is from one of the corners of the Alhambra theatre in Bradford, it took around 60 minutes to draw and shows a high level of detail on the extruding features to try to recreate their patterns and to give it a 3D style.
The image on the right shows a viewing box for the theatre this took around 55 minutes to draw; this drawing was completed almost in layers to even out the workload due to the amount of detail. The drawing is quite realistic and easily represents the setting. Many tones of marker were used to complete this drawing to easily show which bits were reflecting light.
