Lawyers Library - Oklahoma City, Oklahoma

This is the Lawyers Library - Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. It is directly across the street from the Library which I posted a sketch of earlier. Quite a contrast in styles.

On this sketch I drew inspiration from two of my favorite Flickr artists, Luis Ruiz and Florian Afflerbach.

 

Luis Ruiz recently posted a wonderful fish eye which I found particularly inspiring, so I though I would try it out myself. (see Luis' sketch)

Flaf has a wonderful way of treating the bottom of a lot of his sketches. This building has a lot of trees, shrubs and visual clutter at the base which I thought would take away from the purity of the architecture. So I "tried" to implement a technique I have seen Florian use many times, however I think less succesfully than he does. See Florian's sketch here...
