Bending perspectives, fanning cityscapes

DON’T BE LOCKED IN BY PERSPECTIVE. INSTEAD HAVE FUN WITH BUILDINGS. JENNY JING ZHANG SHOWS YOU HOW.

I enjoy the challenge of balancing precision with creativity, often ‘betraying’ my architectural training to make a sketch more playful and engaging. One technique I love is creating a cityscape, where the skyline curves outward like a fan. This technique adds energy and whimsy to the composition, while guiding the eye toward a chosen focal point.
