Debtors' Prison, York (WiP 6)

Focusing on the tree and adding some shadows. Best not to leave these until the end because they usually need adjustment after adding the last bits of foreground. The large circular area of grass in front of the Assize Courts and prison buildings have been referred times the Eye of Yorkshire, or the Eye of the Ridings since the 18th century. The functions of county administration went back to the Norman era and the royal castle of York. Drawn with a Staedtler 0.3mm pencil in an A4 cartridge paper sketchbook.
