Today’s exercise was about drawing the spaces rather than the things. I started with the overall silhouette and then established the important openings and arches before adding any architectural detail.
The final sketch was built from this simple structure, using the photograph to decide which details were actually necessary. The exercise reinforced the importance of being selective about what I draw — and what I leave out.
Score: 8/10
Strongest improvement: More selective observation and a clearer hierarchy.
Weakness: The wash is still not as controlled as it should be.
Key lesson: Don’t draw everything you see — and don’t wash everything you see either.
