Description
Philadelphia Skyline #790A cityscape pen & ink drawing is popular, because of the gazebo in FDR Park, and the print comes matted or framed because it is Fine Art.
Philadelphia Skyline #790A is a cityscape drawing by artist Stephen Condren, BFA, SAIC, of Condren Galleries.
I have used contour lines to draw the image of the city of Philadelphia because they show the outline of the city. To capture the shade and shadows of the city, I have used fine hatched and cross-hatched lines because it runs. To get the best results in a cityscape drawing you have to use hatched lines because they make fine tones.
Cityscape
Looking for FDR Park, you can see the central business district of downtown Philadelphia, Pennsylvania because of the tall buildings. The cityscape is done with brown ink because it softens the delineation of the rendering. The center of the drawing has the largest cluster of skyscrapers, because of FDR Park. In the lower right corner of the rendering, you can see the gazebo which is nicely detailed. The brown pen & ink give the cityscape a warm tone because there is red in the brown ink. Also, the tone of the ink is carried through to the landscaping of FDR Park, because it adds richness to the cityscape. The towering skyscrapers of downtown give stature to the rendering because they are tall.
Rendering
The wonderful skyline can be view in many different angles because it is unique. I have as many different characteristics as possible, almost like a new city skyline from every direction. I did this pen & ink drawing in red ink and made use of a bamboo stick when applying ink to the shadows for strong bold lines to bring out the strength of the drawing. This is a city of history and culture with famous museums and libraries.
