angles in architecture

The artist has drawn this architecture picture to highlight the angles used on this building. This drawing has used foreshortening to quite a good degree on the windows and the edges of the building.Its horizon line has been planned on the top of the short, entrance type building on the right side of the page, the roof of it has got a strong, heavy line which indicates the horizon line goes along that point and the orthogonal lines are angled on the roof of the building and the top of the fence to meet on the horizon line at the vanishing point. Rule of thirds are use to a tiny degree in this picture. The windows on the building and the fence on the right side and the steps and window shutters on the left side are all inside the rule of thirds and is balanced nicely. There are a lot of strong lines within this drawing that lead the viewers eye around the image, a high concentration of them on the right side. Unfortunately this drawing has pretty bad balance and contrast, due to most of the detail being on the right side of the image and on the left it has been left quite bare.
