environment drawing

For the final place for my environmental drawing I decided to do it in my flat. I thought doing it in a familiar environment would be good because I could impart my feelings on to the surrounding environment. Its also a place I felt I could draw more experimentally without outside judgement and had more free space to relax as I draw.

My kitchen is comprised of a lot of straight lines with rather dull colours and quite a few odd perspectives. I thought it would be a good challenge to try and draw it with simplistic line work. I found it quite difficult to get the perspectives right as this drawing required a lot of foreshortening. 

This is a view from my sofa, normally where I end up at the end of the day looking at my table. I decided to use warm colours as this is a place of relaxation. I used water colours and inks to create a soft texture to this drawing for the same reasons.

I came out of my room in the middle of the night into a pitch black hall way, looking up the stairs create a very odd view that was almost dizzying in the pitch black. I wanted to try and capture this feeling if looking into what feels like an abyss. I used graphite sticks to try and achieve the depth in the image however I think charcoal would have worked better on this piece.
