Foust Building

Last week's assignment, a pure contour drawing of the Foust Building, was a great opportunity to practice drawing what I see, not what I think I see. There are so many lines going in all directions that I had to concentrate on each one individually. As I was studying this building, the beautiful architectural details grabbed my attention and I really started to enjoy this exercise. Realizing how important accurate lines are to the composition of a contour drawing, I tried not to rush so I would not omit or add one accidentally. After doing this assignment, my interest for drawing without a T-square and triangle has grown.
