Practical Drawing Interior Space

This week our practical drawing class with john consisted of interior drawing. This was the complete opposite of my last lesson with john, as we focused on wide open spaces. This week was about understanding interior environments, focusing on perspective. I wasn't very good at this, however I used a basic line style of drawing, using different coloured sharpies for each scene. I wanted to explore the idea of looking outside from an interior, giving a much more enclose feeling but having a glimpse of freedom.

This area was a drawing for the perspective of the practical studio area where we have many of our group tutorials on a Friday. With the late windows I began to use them like a natural frame, focusing my detail within the my makeshift canvas. From my perspective I could only see the roofs, so I was limited to what I could draw, and I didn't want to focus on my interior surroundings.


This quick sketch focused on little areas of inside objects, and had quite an abstract theme.


Overall I am not very happy with the outcomes of this drawing session and I would like to get better in future so that I can better integrate drawing into my graphic design studies, as I see it as a useful skill to have for the foundation of ideas.
