Description
A sketch of the English National Opera house, the Coliseum, in London. They let me sit in a Balcony seat for about half an hour before chucking me out when the next show started that evening. Took a phew photos for reference and layed out the under drawing for this sketch.I particularly enjoyed pushing the angle here, past 90, 100, perhaps 120 degrees wide, with a significant vertical dimension too. Challenging!
Ink over a pencil under sketch on 200gsm A2 paper.

Wow, nice work.
I've never been too tolerant of drawing architecture.

Very cool how you've focused all the details to the middle left of the picture - it really does make the viewer feel like they're looking out into that section. Also, just the sense of space!
