Cathedral Drawing

For our life drawing this term, we studied that Norwich Cathedral and its surrounding land. In our first session, Will taught us about perspective, and encouraged us to do a loose drawing to begin with, using two or three-point perspective, before moving on to a more structured piece once we had the hang of it.


 Finally, Will asked us to take a scene from around us and fanstasise it, making an imaginary scene using the perspectives we learned about. Unfortunately, I spent too much time trying to work out how I wanted to change the Cathedral, that I ran out of time.


In our second session, Nigel asked us to focus on the composition of our pieces, and combining that with the knowledge of perspectives that Will taught us. Starting with some small sketches (some angles I ended up finding too difficult, hence the crossed out one and the very light pencil one), before moving onto one, longer piece which we could spend more time on.
