Tennis With My Family With A Magical Evening Sky. (On Cape Cod)

Kris B

The story that I am trying to tell this drawing is me and my family playing tennis on Cape Cod. Playing tennis as a whole family is always memorable to me and this evening was especially special because of the beautiful sky and the vibrant and incredible colors in the sky.

I used value in this drawing to illustrate the many shades of the evening sky, to make the ocean look more realistic, to show the magnificent sun reflecting in the water, to show the incredible light from the descending sun, and to make depth and perspective.

The most challenging aspect of this drawing for me was showing the perspective and getting the right color. I am a "perfectionist" and it was hard to do everything exactly how I wanted it to be; in other words, I reached too high, and did not have all of the skill to really get the "exactness" that I wanted.

The most successful aspect of my drawing is that I was able to show perspective very well, and I was able to get and happy with the light aspect.
