This piece presents a realistic, front-facing study of the Empire State Building, focusing on its iconic upper structure. Drawn in my early teens, this piece was inspired by a dream of visiting New York and my fascination with its layered skyline of historic and modern buildings. The symmetrical, head-on composition emphasises the building’s sense of class, strength, and timelessness, while also serving as a personal challenge to capture as much detail as possible within a small format. Through precision and careful observation, the work celebrates both the architectural elegance of the building.
