Clock Towers


Two images of the Sacramento City Hall Clock Tower. The upper is woodless graphite pencil and the lower, which has been previously posted, is pen and ink technical pens with "shades of grey" felt pen washes. Each was drawn in a different season.

ok, on the bottom one, I am reposting my original comment...if you get to use it twice, so do I!

This is a really nice sketch. The "sketchy" quality of the drawing is not over the top. It is also a really nice crop of the scene. Excellent shading, even though they may be a little dark and heavy they still work well for this type of sketching.

As for the second tower, I like this one as well. It seems like you got it down on the paper quick, and did a great job placing it on the paper while keeping the scale and placing in the scene well proportioned.
