While I was drawing Notre Dame from the front, I kept thinking something was wrong with my eyes, but no, the left bell tower is askew. No doubt they didn't use laser levelers in those days...
painting and drawing tips and fine art

Two sketches of Notre Dame cathedral in Paris, that I used as basis for paintings. A building and a body are the same in many ways, if you understand the bone and muscle structure, then you will be able to draw a better body, and so too a building, that needs to be looked at and understood before drawing it, or while drawing, you come to understand it. This applies for both landscapes and life drawing.

Yes, they took hours to create.
