Description
This is a drawing I did from a photo that I took when I was in Venice - it's one of my favourite places in the world!I used: 5B, 2B, B, H, 2H pencils.
Size: A4
The scanner's blurred some of the details a bit. I must have spent 50+ hours on it - so glad to have finished!
Edit: I had to send this drawing off as part of a portfolio of work so that it could be moderated as part of my A level qualification. Somehow the exam board lost track of it after marking it and my years worth of art was never sent back to me. I miss my work so much; I'd love to be re-united with this drawing one day...

This is so good, sounds like one of the old moderators wanted this for their wall...

That's horrible that you never got your work back, I was terrified of that happening when I sent off my portfolio. This piece is so fantastic, the textures are lovely.

Brilliant work! I admire the patience it took you to finish. I am also incredibly forlorn to hear that the drawing was misplaced, that was a terrible thing.

When I was in Venice those old, ruined buildings made much bigger impression on me than Doge's Palace

This is WOW! I had thought about drawing from a photograph that looked almost exactly like this but I don't think I will now. I would be too embarrassed. This is really great!
