New Oxford street

One morning I rose early to make this drawing, on the corner of New Oxford street and Tottenham Court road. It was just one block from the St. Giles hotel where I stayed. On the left side you will notice the Dominion theatre, which features the Queen musical "we will rock you". Drawn on location, added colour at home.

Nice sense of space - the tight road and the tall buildings. Your cross-hatchings on the brick are also very effective.

Thanks Zeljko, I noticed on your blog that you are learning todraw as well.
Dank je Geert-Jan.
Thanks Michael, I should add that adding a little colour made the hatching a lot better.
