Final Landscape Drawing

This is a drawing of a landscape looking from a window. There is impressionistic technique used in the drawing where only some of the brick have been drawn. This is because they were the darkest and instead of drawing all of them only some of them where drawn to give the sense that the wall is made of bricks. In the image the main focal point is the large bush in the bottom right hand corner and that garden is a contrast to the garden next to it which is mostly empty. There is some detail on the houses as there are some marks on the walls and also because on the day this way drawn there was rain some the water was going on the walls as well.  For the large bush in the bottom right hand corner a certain drawing technique was used where swirls and curves were used as the leaves were quite small but they were round.  There is good composition in the drawing and the drawing uses the rule of thirds as the bush is in one of the focal point used for rule of thirds. There is also an implied line which goes from the bush along to the left following the gate and then along the fence to the house. At this point it follows the pipe up to the roof and along it to the mark in the middle of the house. This drawing took 1 hour 5 minutes to complete as there is a lot of detail which I had to observe carefully.
