Landscape Drawing of the Richmond Building

This week's task involved going out and selecting a good vantage point of the Richmond building, focusing mainly on the bubbled roof and portraying the light reflecting off of it. I like the use of shading on the roof as it shows the direction of the light from the shadow that is cast from the building on the right. On the left of the roof the shading hows the roof curves. The lack of detail in the other buildings was intentional as I wanted the roof to stay the main focal point of the image. I feel the range of tone used in the image is successful as it shows depth in the image. Critically, I think that the angles of the building in the top right need improvement as it is too steep an angle which is incorrect. If I could redraw this image I think I would focus more on the detail of the picture as it would look more closely accurate and more advanced.
