Week 3 Activity

The sketch depicts the scenery visible from the window of my room. Actually, before the sketching, I almost imagine the strict straight lines, right angles, and different strict geometry that relate to artificial things. I guess because these structures and patterns are easier for architects to build buildings, and also present humans' inherent inner part of following norms and rules. While in the process of sketching, I can clearly feel the inclination to use a ruler (but I didn't use it) to draw straight lines and ensure the accuracy of every right angle for the artificial elements on the paper. However, when depicting biological elements such as trees, seagulls, or grass, I allow myself to draw them freely and flexibly. I understand that regardless of whether they grow in unusual angles or directions, they all appear natural and make sense.
