Architecture Sketching

SATURDAY NIGHT – LATE: I rarely give up on a drawing late at night…. But tonight I am just WAY too tired to finish this one…so here is a work in progress of another Venetian palace.   Notice how I am not particularly systematic as I build up the sketch…especially when tired!   I have...
