The spring 2016 issue of Drawing takes to the streets, examining cityscapes, architecture and other urban subjects through the work of Susan Grossman, Elizabeth Ockwell, Douglas Cooper and Ben Tolman. We also learn how to create panoramic drawings, an unusual technique that is well-suited to cityscape drawing.
We also reveal the winners of the 2015 Shades of Gray Competition, and in our Drawing Fundamentals series, Jon deMartin explains how line can be used to make your figure drawings appear convincingly three-dimensional.
The full list of articles is below. Be sure to order your copy, download the issue, or subscribe to Drawing. Enjoy!
