Ochre & Sienna
Started my day off really late with this architectural illustration today. It wasn't planned as such but I suddenly had the urge to make it as I spent the entire afternoon watching Gary Tucker's video on shadows, tonal values and figure sketching. The location is of the Nahargarh Fort here in Jaipur which I had visited a few weeks back.
I am learning how to do shadows, illumination and gradient washes with watercolors which seems easier to look but much harder to achieve. Today's illustration was a better practice than yesterday's because I tested some color combinations purely on hunch and most of them worked out just fine. Anyway, loads of scope for improvement and I look forward to the upcoming illustrations in the week!
Keep Creating
Lots Of Love <3
Great painting @aishwarya.
Especially the part where you used the masking tape is adding a lot of value to the painting helping reduce monotonicity.
Keep going!!
Best of Luck.
That was exactly the point of masking it! Happy that you perceived it that way <3
Thank you so much :)
It's beautiful 👍👍👍👏👏
Thank you so much~ :)
The shadows are beautiful. The sand colored walls reminded me of the game "Alladin" :P
Ikr!! I was also thinking how Aladdin would jump around and collect apples :P
You thought of Alladin too ?!! That's freaking amazing :P
Yeahhhh :D
You painted the building and it’s architectural details so well. The windows and hint of a blind arch.... amazing 😍
