Semester 2 Week 12 Colour in spring

The composition of this drawing is successful. The parts on the left of the tree in the middle and the tree itself, create a balance with the right part. The mixture of blue tones is efficient for the sky, and the mixture of the yellow and green values are very appropriate for the tree in the middle.

Semester 2 Week 11 Contemporary architecture

The perspective of this drawing is not very obvious. However, the curved piece of building create an impression of depth and foreshortening. Additionally, the straight lines of the pieces under the curved one, create a contrast with it.

Semester 2 Week 10 Classical interiors at Cartwright Hall in Lister Park (Bradford)

The composition of this drawing is not efficient. The right side has more elements that the left one and there is no balance. The strokes of shading of the column on the right follow the direction of its form, but the strokes are very intense on its left side and it does not appear three dimensional.

Semester 2 Week 9 Shadow and tonal values EXCURSION Royal Armouries, Leeds

The composition of this drawing is very successful. The stature on the right creates a balance with the walls on the left. The perspective is not efficient, because the lines of the wall on top is curved. The strokes of shading of the walls follow the direction of their form. The strokes of the knight statue are too intense.

Semester 2 Week 8 Scenic Composition

The composition of this drawing is successful. The tree on the left creates a balance with the  right part of the drawing. However, the perspective is not depicted efficiently with the line above that tree. The strokes of shading of the tree follow the direction of its form and with the highlights, it defines the form very properly. The strokes of the shading of the grass in the middle are not very obvious, also the highlight between is very intense and feels separate.

Semester 2 Week 7 Perspective of curves

The composition is very efficient. The dark wall creates a balance with the lighter one next to it and the parallel lines on the left. Additionally, the single point perspective is described by these lines effectively. The curves on the top are very well formed. The soft shading of the glasses on the right show the light source.

Semester 2 Week 6 Landscape, angles in architecture

The composition is efficient enough, however, if the building was lower, it would probably be more balanced. The straight lines of the building create an interesting contrast with the curves of the road. The perspective is single point, as the vanishing point is on the white spot in the middle of the building. The soft shading of the white wall on the right describes the light direction effectively.
