A series of drawings, done for university. The task was indeed just that - to find a place in the city and display its quality in a series of 8 images that would build up on one another.

Hello from ProjectComment!
Very enjoyable drawing! It really conveys a feeling of a city comfortable to live in. I have always envied people who can do urban sketches with nice structures
I like the negative figures of people and bicycles, they create a difference between the mobile and static. Does the one 'filled' bike on the second from the right panel mean something?)
You have a nice variability in line thickness when you reinforce the angles. It gives a cool impression of structure. But at the same time you might lose depth when you make little distinction between the lines closer to the viewer and farther away from them. For example in the fourth scene from the left, you have a sharp angle on the building and you do make it darker on the bottom and lighter further away, but the structures under the arch have darker lines than this angle - this cannot be so. It might be a good idea to make those lines lighter, but thicker in contrast to sharp thin dark lines in the foreground.
In general I like the arrangement of the eight scenes, there is a clear rhythm in that sequence. Although it seems that the leftmost panel looks a bit out of place in this collection. It is a single building rather than bits and pieces of what seems to be different structures, this building is dark against a white background (while your other backgrounds are at least a bit covered and it does not fill the whole panel. I like it on ts own, but it might be a good idea to have a second one like this on the right, or to put it in the center, or to get rid of it entirely. Or maybe it is just my feeling.
This makes me think of some books of novellas, something like modern-day Kafka (maybe not so desperate). I would love to see something illustrated this way!
