MATERIALS: THE TOOLS AND TECHNIQUES FOR DRAWING BUILDINGS Pencils Vertical soft shading is highly effective on walls. Diagonal soft shading works particularly well in windows to create reflections. Watercolour pencils One pencil colour can be laid on top of another and then washed over with clear water to achieve a brickwork effect. Pen line and wash A quick line sketch with a fibre-tip pen can be given substance by selective washing. Dont forget to leave some areas of paper dry. MECHANICS: THE ELEMENTS THAT HOLD A COMPOSITION TOGETHER Perspective You will always need to direct your attention to the way in which both sides of the building appear to recede into the distance. Squaring Up This technique involves placing a grid on top of your original sketch. If you dont wish to draw directly on to your sketch, you can work on tracing paper. Rule of Thirds Positioning the horizon along one third of the composition and the roof apex along the vertical third creates a balanced picture. THE BUILT ENVIROMENT: DRAWING AND PAINTING ARCHITECTURE Rural buildings A sketch of an old wooden barn can be made to explore its context, such as how it interacts with the background. Urban buildings While the grand scale of a church is initially a little intimidating, the pure symmetry makes it easy to construct. Street scenes Including some human interest reinforces the purpose of the buildings and makes the drawing more interesting.
