Two Point Perspective

This is a two point perspective drawing with a view from the corner of a street. I used a regular pencil for the different values. I drew the picture with the paper horizontal because I wanted the street to be longer with more buildings. The person in the drawing is proportional to the buildings so it is correct in size and makes sense. Da Vinci's six rules of light show by the shadows on the sides of the buildings that are not facing the light source on the left. Some of the buildings are next to each other and there are also some gaps. My goal in this piece was to make it look like a real street corner and keep the lines consistent in going to the vanishing points.
