Grant County Courthouse

12/10/2013

Using some new paper I've completed a colourful rendering of a decorative building from my home county.
This is the Grant County Courthouse in Lancaster, Wisconsin. It was built in 1902.

I took a very liberal and expressive approach, I wanted to work quickly and accentuate the roof of the building. It reminds me of the architecture in France.

The composition is a little interesting, however I am not over-pleased with the 2 short trees in front. It suggests a sort of mirror'd effect within the over all composition which I find distracting. I might take another stab at this building, as I enjoy the colours and the roof.
