The Selected View

View from the Corner of East and Wendell Streets

The view that was selected by the "Friends of the Athenaneum" for the painting is the one that captures the front and side of the library. Notice I plugged some people into this sketch.
Next step is to finalize the scene with a more detailed drawing. It will become more "populated" with people, some of the positioning will change a bit, more of the pavement and landscaping will be drawn in, there will be shadows and shading, in essence, it will look more finished. However, I can still do some minor adjusting even during the painting stage, sometimes the obvious is not so obvious until that stage...but essentially, this is the view that the painting will be based upon.
