This sketch shows a detailed drawing of a tall, ornate building with lots of architectural features. You can see pointed towers, arched windows, and intricate stonework. The lines are mostly black, with some shading to show depth and texture. The drawing looks like it was made quickly, focusing on capturing the building’s structure rather than color. The artist used fine lines to highlight the building’s details, like the clock face and decorative columns. Next, check out cross-hatching to see how artists create shading with lines.
