Philadelphia skyline pen & ink drawing of downtown #789. To do such a drawing I suggest the following:
- Have high quality permanent ink and excellent pens or styluses.
- Choose a vantage point that take in the desired angle of the site.
- Look at the horizon line and make sure that it is not in the center of your drawing.
This drawing is of the central downtown district on the Schuylkill River. This is my favorite drawing of Philadelphia, it is one of those drawing where all of the elements that I was seeking came together.
The brown ink is a plus for this image, it nicely compliments the flow of the Schuylkill River with it’s “brown trees” along the shore line. Most of the line work is straight and I have used very little cross hatching as the lighting of the day does not place demands for shade and shadows.
