Western European Architecture
Lesson 4 of 9 Ink Sketching: Architecture
In this lesson you’ll focus merging various Western European visual concepts in a simple graphic sketch.
Western European Sketch Homework
Create a sketch of Western European style architecture. You can either do a study based on a real building, or you can use the ‘invented architecture’ concepts you learned in earlier lessons to create your own buildings inspired by various Western European cultures.
Stylistically, it’s recommended that you keep the values and lighting simpler for this first cultural architecture assignment. This will allow you to concentrate on capturing the buildings’ details.
