Exercise 3, Manly Church, outline and abstracting shapes #lesson1manly

I struggled with the third exercixe, the Light & Dark as I could not see the difference between 'shaded' areas and shadow. It seemed like torture to be trying to locate where the darks went without any guide lines and my brain wanted to do the volumes exercise first, but no, I persevered. I feel that I learned more after each attempt at these exercises and have taken on board Liz's advice about not stressing, enoying and trusting the process. Things can only get better from here on in I think!

My last sketch of this church from a photo reference. I'm planning/hoping to be able to get outside over the weekend to sketch a real life building. #sketchingnowbuildings #drawingbuildings #sketchbook by Cathryn Worrell

The final sketch of Manly Church for #lesson1 #lesson1manly

I felt like I rushed some parts of this but over all I'm happy with what I've produced. All the exercises we did leading up to this were so helpful for getting to know this building. I'm usually tempted just to dive in with a pen and then I don't always explore the angles and shapes as well as I could.

Old habits die hard and I struggled with shapes.

Manly Church - Feeling edges by Caromite

I struggled with the continuous line, this drawing consists of 4 continuous lines. Nontheless I had a lot of fun and am quite satisfied with the end result.

continuous line. A nice way to explore the building. I liked to add the people as well. #sketchingnowbuildings

Manly Church Volumes by Michelle Goggans

I felt very strong about this drawing after working through the other exercises. I think the process helped to see the angles and proportiosn I struggled with earlier in the process.

Outlining negative space. Adding some basic shapes is tricky when there aren't very many 'landmarks' but this is definitely a useful exercise for learning to really see things. #sketchingnowbuildings #drawingbuildings #sketchbook by Cathryn Worrell

I found it difficult to focus on the negative space rather than the sky but hopefully with practise I can get better at switching the object bit of my brain off for a while! I think this was good exercise for me because I tend to get so bogged down and distracted by tiny details, which I couldn't do here. #lesson1 #lesson1manly

I think the left building and the right side of the tower are not foreshortened enough. #lesson1manly

didn't get the windows on the left correct. I stopped drawing before I got lost in details. because of the exercises before constructing this building was easier.

I find feeling edges most comfortable, but that may be because I always stick to line drawings, paying less attention to shapes and volumes. I need to combine those 3.

Catching up with SketchingNow Buildings homework. These were done from a photo reference - practicing continuous line, abstracting shapes, and constructing volumes. Read more about it on my course notes blog at : jblodget-buildings.blogspot.com/2016/09/lesson-1-manly-ch... .

My approach of the church with some setting lines (blue). It´s ok, but I like my continuous line drawing more - I think it´s more dynamic. Can you say so for a building?

Continuous line drawing of a church from a photo reference for #sketchingnowbuildings . This was a bit of a challenge with such a complex subject but it was a fun way to warm up and 'get to know' this building. #sketching #drawingbuildings by Cathryn Worrell

I've not done a continuous line drawing of such a complex subject before (and never of a building). This was fun and I enjoyed the challenge of not being able to lift my pen. I think it was a good way for me to loosen up a bit. #lesson1 #lesson1manly

looking at shapes is a quite new attempt for me.

#lesson1manly by Corinne van der Vorst

This was the easiest of these 4 exercises of Manly church for me as I usually use constructing volumes when I sketch. Again I liked adding the people. #sketchingnowbuildings
