The first two drawings are of pictures I had taken of my surroundings and the last two are pictures I had found on the internet.
The first is of the beach. I struggled to draw the difference between the sand and the surrounding rocks and went back and fourth adding textures to the rocks. The picture was taken on a calm summers day and the sea was almost completely flat with no clouds in the sky.
My second drawing was of and abandoned farm house next to the road outside my town, It was a clear evening with the setting sun giving everything a golden glow. This scene is one of my utmost favorites and has been the inspiration for quite a few of my artworks.
I chose this scene for its cool and calming atmosphere and I enjoyed the beautiful contrast of light on the mountains.
This was an image that had been taken on a misty day and I struggled a bit to portray the scenery disappearing into the mist.
All these drawings were done on A3 paper and I think I should have rather used larger paper in order to capture better detail.
