Atlanta Skyline Brown Pen & Ink Drawing Of Piedmont Park #863. This kind of drawing, it is recommended that you do the following:

  1. Have extra supplies and snacks on hand.
  2. Study the contour of the trees with the skyscrapers.
  3. Make use of cross hatching for deeper tones.

The brown ink that I have employed for this drawing has worked very well for me. The tone of the ink goes will with the light brown paper and the shadows in the drawing all compliment this tone.

I am very will pleased with how well cross hatching has made Lake Clara Meer look so alive. When I look at this drawing all that I can see is the stirring of the lagoon.

The skyscrapers in the background almost seem to grow out of the landscape. The use of ink details in the shrubs and trees is very will executed and convinces the viewer that this is truly a tranquil place.

Skyline Red Pen & Ink Key Points:

  1. Have all of you art supplies in order and extra stocks of it.
  2. Study the movement of the water.
  3. Watch the time of day and calculate the time for the angle of the sun.

Regarding the angle of the sun, which is very important, be sure to have the rays of light working with you and on the subject. Do not have the subject in shadows. It is amazing how often I encounter artist drawing their subject in the shade. Much of the time this was due to poor calculation of time, for as the day passes the sun moves and soon they find that their subject is in the shade. Make sure that you give yourself time!

In this red pen & ink drawing I have made use of the suns rays which in this drawing are coming in from behind me over and to the right. The shade of the buildings in the back ground reflect this.

I am very please with my handling of the motion of the water. When you look at the center you can see how the strokes of ink have dissipated. Keep in mind that loose following lines work better for you on water than cross hatching. Hatching is best utilized in places such as under the trees on the shore line.

All in all the clarity of line work in the drawing is very good and has rendered the landscape of Piedmont Park admirably.

Atlanta Skyline Pen & Ink Drawing Of Midtown At Night #025Z

Atlanta skyline #859A pen & ink drawing is popular because of it's view of Piedmont Park and Lake Clara Meer.

This article is about Atlanta skyline #025Z pen & ink drawing, which is for sale at discount with prints by artist Stephen F. Condren, BFA-SAIC, of Condren Galleries, a Fine Arts Gallery, offering JPEG & PDF scans. This article is about my pen & ink night time drawing of Lake Clara Meer at Piedmont Park, in Atlanta, Georgia.

Skyline Pen & Ink Drawing Key Points:

  1. Have all of your art supplied and gear in place.
  2. Bring lighting to allow you to work.
  3. Spend a long time looking at the city lights to understand the contour of the buildings.

It is not a common practice to do landscape drawings at night. However, if you are only in town for a short time take advantage of this. It is my practice to do as much as I can in the short time that I am usually in places.

It is amazing just how much that you can see at night when you have set up your easel or table. There are many kinds of lighting fixtures to choose from. One you have your lighting in place it is quiet easy to work. The flip side of the coin however, is that you need to keep your working light at a lower than usual level of brightness because you need to be able to see out into the dark and thus your pupils need to dilate to take in that light. If you have bright lights on around you, then you will not be able to focus on things out in the darkness.

Cross hatching is king! In this pen & ink drawing cross hatching has become indispensable due to the darkness. However, you cannot let the darkness take over. If you make too many hatch marks then the drawing becomes to dense and then ruined. Remember it is not easy to see in the dark and then you have to take into account your eye adjustment between viewing the site and refocusing in the brighter light of your easel.

As dark as the scene was I have made the trees light so as to create a negative space to hold the composition together. There is an abundance of light in the center of the lagoon as well as on the building in the background. The deep darkness of the center sky behind the skyline makes for a wonderful perspective drawing without vanishing points.

Atlanta Brown Pen & Ink Skyline Drawing Of Midtown #024Z

Atlanta skyline brown pen & ink drawing

This article is about Atlanta skyline #024Z brown pen & ink drawing, which is for sale at discount with prints by artist Stephen F. Condren, BFA-SAIC, of Condren Galleries, a Fine Arts Gallery, offering JPEG & PDF scans. This article is about my brown pen & ink drawing of midtown Atlanta, Georgia, at Piedmont Park.

Atlanta Brown Pen & Ink Key Features:

  1. Landscape
  2. Pen & Ink
  3. Water

The brown color ink make a nice tone to this lovely setting in Piedmont Park. So often black ink is used for pen & ink drawings, and I have a deep love for black ink. However, on occasion it is nice to try a different tone.

My focus for this drawing really is the water. I have done a good job of capturing the rustling water near the shore line then showing the gradual dissipation of the waves as they enter the center of the lagoon. The shade and shadows of the tree line was essential in getting the effect. The trees and foliage are almost non-descriptive as their negative space make for a fine support for the tower skyscraper that stand behind them.
