Course work: A quick pencil sketch of my row of buildings from a slightly different viewpoint, with some colored pencil added for experimentation. I can’t say I was happy with the result. Addition of a little cerulean blue marker helped, although it is not included in the list of recommended materials (although the illustration, presumably included as an example of what is desired, includes blue). However, I think this was a useful exercise, as it gives me a somewhat clearer idea of what I am trying to accomplish.

Other activity: Watched a VHS tape by Tony Couch entitled Drawing Landscape with Pencil and Ink. This was fairly useful, the pencil portion more so than the ink-and-wash part.
Total time: 2 hours13 min
