When I think of atmospheric perspective, the first thing that comes to mind is a field of some sort. Something with a vast amount of space and depth. I wanted to challenge myself with a work that has less depth. I also wanted to do something that takes your eye into a “typical” direction. (Field eyes go back into painting).
Using India ink and water I believe brings out the subtlety of the architectural aspect in this. Architecture isn’t something I typically do, but I found it gave me a sort of “pattern” to go by. Meaning, I could follow lines and shadows easily. The main goal I had was for this to turn out as a piece that was “easy on the eyes” and I believe I did that.
