The Christ’s Church of Rye

Finally got to sketch this beautiful Christ's Church of Rye, NY last weekend.  I took careful measurements to make sure the whole scene fit right on my sketchbook.  Easier said than done because I got lost many times.  Example, the apex was adjusted a few times. Didn’t mind to hatch the grass blade details and the foliage but then it felt like I was pushing it too much.  It was time to walk away from it and consider it done.

    This is really so well done. You did a great job on all the architectural details...and there are so many. Bravo!
