London Streetscape No. 2



Richmond Street between Dundas and Carling. If you are downtown London, just look up and you will see all the great architectural detail on the old buildings. The reference for this was taken while I was downtown about a week and a half ago and did the small sketch of the corner of Dundas and Richmond. After I started drawing, this is what was going through my mind... "what was I thinking, there is soooo much detail here, this is going to take forever!" But a week later, drawing a little here and there when I had sometime, and here is the finished piece. It’s the architectural detailing around the windows on the second floor that attracts me. There are so many more streets like this down town, I am not sure what to do next.
