Course work: Further work on the foreground-midground-background drawing. Today I added cloud elements based on yesterday’s sketchbook, as the photograph I am working from was taken on a clear-sky day. The decreasing size of the cumulus clouds and the diminishing tonal contrast toward the horizon aid in creating the impression of depth in the drawing.
