View from a church porch

I actually did this bit as a proper 'view from a window/doorway' as you should for the end of this assignment, to prove I could do a picture that kept to the brief, as well as my more experimental finished item. I'm not that happy with this picture though, and that's mostly because of the interior sections. Number one: I built this up in so many layers of pastel, then coloured pencil, pastel again, etc, that I couldn't get certain bits as dark as they should perhaps be without making then jet black! Number two: The shadow that I tried to do in a more interesting way (and so that the wall didn't look as flat) in the lower left looks worse now than before! However, I think the way I built up the tree outside works quite well, and is certainly an eye-catching centre for the drawing.
