The first sketch is an attempt to draw a hospital building, I attempted to draw and block out each shape to simplify the drawing. rather than experimenting with the materials I tried to experiment with my technique. by simplifying the shapes and keeping the rules of perspective in mind I was able to draw the building easier.However the areas of interest with in the drawing such as the door, and its roof seems to break the 2 point perspective of the building making it look very inaccurate in some areas.

In the second drawing I avoided getting onto the details of atrium. I decided to focus more on experimentation with materials (Pro marker and ink pens). Whilst trying to find a new approach to interpreting the building I was able to block out the buildings through the use simple shapes and. I was also able create a sense of light and shadow through the use of color variation dependent on which area of the building was interacting with the light. Although it was successful in simplifying the landscape it does not have a good sense of 2 point perspective, bad composition and focal point.

Due to how unsuccessful the second sketch turned out I attempted to use the same technique, whilst keeping the basic principles in mind.

In this sketch you can see a good form of a 2 point perspective. There is a clear focus on the buildings behind the arc. Although they are smaller the vibrant colours used on the buildings seems to suggest that they are the main focal point on this work. You can also see a clear patter on the arc which implicates that the texture of the material is reflective.

I think this drawing is successful in capturing the form of the building with the smallest amount of detail. It is also successful in distinguishing the distance from the viewer through he use of perspective and shading. The detail in the structure is becoming more and more obscure as the objects are further away from the viewer, showing a good sense of depth with in the drawing.

However I think this drawing is unsuccessful in accuracy, although the difference in colours enable us to distinguish between it is inaccurate. The tonal shading on the building is too harsh in some areas. such as the top of the arch.
