Week 9 :Modern Architecture, Interiors

The topic for this week is modern architecture and interiors. This at first seemed to be a straight forward topic due to the fact that most modern building are quite straight and square structures, It turns out that there are a number of much finer details that come together to give a modern building its look. Some of these features are shadows and reflections.
This is evident within the drawing above as it shows slight shadows on the balcony and on the entrance doors. Shading has also been used to show shadows on the pillars to add another level of complexity to their 3D structure. There are slight reflections on the glass railing which have been considered by fading any background scenery and adding a very light and smeared tone to its surface. Overall, this is a good drawing of a modern interior using artistic markers since it contains a foreground (the balcony) a mid-ground (the entrances) and a background (the windows and pillars). After having a good look at the drawing the top section of the left wall has extremely bad perspective due to the fact that the line is at the wrong angle which in turn disturbs the curves and angles within the ceiling.
