This is the view from my front window, looking out to my porch and beyond to the road. I have a split rail fence that you can see a bit of. This was a big undertaking for me, and I'm happy with it! Played with a lot of dark colors for black-but still haven't achieved a nice black black. In the small spot where I needed it I used my marker. I used Danny's advice, and started drawing what was closest to me, the chair, then went out from there. It worked well! I think if I had done this before reading Danny's advice I would have started in the background. Don't know how to get the window to look like a window. Didn't wan't to do the 3 white lines thing. And it is very clean!

This looks wonderful! You've got a really solid composition and you've captured the scene so well that I want to be there, looking out that window! Well done!
I think the window looks like a window. You can tell that this was drawn from life instead of from a photo--it has a lifelike quality to it. Good work!
wonderfully composed, the tree leaves especially are beautifully done and love that you included the cat!
This is very charming. I like to draw comfortable chairs myself, they look so alluring. I like the cat,too, and the greenness of the garden. Very nice.
