My inspiration for this piece came from a park that I walk through every day to go to class. There are always a bunch of children playing on the playground and running around as well as many people walking their dogs. I also drew some rough buildings in the background to give the image some more dimension and show the surroundings.
Drawing the people in perspective was a bit difficult. While they look proportional, they also look a little flat. I challenged myself with drawing the proportions of children (since they are slightly different from the proportions of adults). They also do look sufficiently proportional, but again flat.
The swing set and trees were also drawn in one point perspective. The swings were a bit challenging but I like the way they came out. I also intentionally drew the trees in decreasing size so that they were proportional to their location in space.
This was not my favorite sketch, which is perhaps why it is incomplete. However, it was a good exercise for practicing drawing the figure proportionally and drawing the figure in space.
