Cityscape

In this drawing of the Atlanta, Georgia, skyline I have decided to work with black pen & ink to create a night scene. Doing a night scene of any kind be it in drawing, painting or watercolor is always a challenge because you are working with a minimum of light to show your subjects while at the same time you are attempting to create an image of a subject that is recognizable. If you use too many lines and darken the spacial areas too much then you look the imagery and fail at your task. On the other hand, the nice thing about evening scenes is the amount of emotions and feeling that one can expressed. We learned this early on from the great Italian master Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio.

In this drawing I have made use of cross-hatched lines to darken the sky. If you look carefully at the buildings, on their right side you can see that there is more intense use of cross-hatching to denote the effect of the shadow from the last rays of the setting sun. I am careful not to use too much cross-hatching for it will make the drawing too dark and then you will lose the distinction between the buildings and the sky, which is not my intention. In the foreground is the least amount of line work so that the viewer can see more clearly the downtown area of Atlanta. However, notice that the line work in the area is very loose and flowing which brings the viewer into the drawing.
