This article is about my red pen & ink drawing of the Chicago, Illinois, skyline of Streeterville, and the John Hancock Center.
Chicago Skyline Pen & Ink Drawing #852. Key elements to the drawing are as follows.
- Red Pen & Ink.
- John Hancock Center.
- Streeterville.
- Red Pen & Ink: This drawing is done in red pen & ink as a change from the standard black ink. I have used this color red to compliment the same red that I have used in the small series of drawings.
- John Hancock Center: The John Hancock Center has been the focus of my attention on this drawing and the other that compliment it in this small series. I like how this section of Chicago, called Streeterville, has all of it’s skysrapers gather around the John Hancock Center which is at the very center and makes a great point of culmination.
- Streeterville: This area of Chicago is called Streeterville and to most Chicagoans it is the near north side. This area is Chicago’s response to a “midtown” Chicago, but on the north side.
