Louvre

An attempt at a side view of the Louvre, drawn from scratch on Illustrator - I find it really hard to get the perspective of the lines all correct and arranging the lines evenly, so I decided to trace a photo of the Louvre which had all the line structure things in it:

I'll be basing my illustration on this as it is more precise than what I did by myself.


This is based on one of the thumbnails I did in which you can see the main building of the Louvre behind the pyramid. I have done the Louvre in an incredibly simple shape and style as I don't feel I need to do any more to it to make it recognisable.


Compositional idea two: offset building to the side and shift it to portrait. Works fairly well, need to see if the rest can be position in the same way to good effect before I commit to it.


Removing colour in the building behind to make the Louvre stand out
