"Below the Parthenon" 9x12 mixed #dailydrawing

A number of years ago we visited Athens.  I had been there 25 years before, and was astounded at the growth in the city over those two + decades.  Flying in over the city, it seemed to sprawl out and up against the mountains like the housing had been poured into its space.   This is my 39th drawing for #dailydrawing.  I was drawn to the large columns in the foreground framing the distant space.  I drew the image in pen, added gray marker and some black colored pencil. As always, thank you for looking.

  1. Nice. Sun-dappled shadows in the foreground and the plants growing out of the cracks - very cool.
