The Eiffel Tower
Eiffel Tower, the most visited paid monument in the world. French name 'La Tour Eiffel' is made from puddle iron lattice and is located in Champ de Mars, Paris, France. Eiffel Tower was built in 1889 and remained the tallest building on earth from 1889 to 1930. Eiffel tower stands at the height of 320m i.e. 1050 ft. Eiffel Tower is named after Engineer Gustave Eiffel, whose company designed and built the tower. Eiffel Tower was opposed by French artists before and during its construction. The puddle iron used for building Eiffel Tower weighs over 7,300 tonnes. Around 50 tonnes of paint is applied in every seven years to the Eiffel Tower to prevent it from rusting. Tourists from all over the world visit Eiffel Tower along with the other famous landmarks like Cathedral of Notre Dame and the Louvre in France. After its opening on 31st March, 1889, Eiffel Tower has received more than 200,000,000 visitors. All these facts are enough to inspire me to draw the magnificent and artistic Eiffel Tower.

The Eiffel Tower Sketch
I made this Eiffel Tower sketch around a year ago. I made it with a sketch pen and i felt it was good when i made it. I made it with free hand drawing and looking at a simple drawing of Eiffel Tower in a book. But few days back, when i looked at it, i thought that its not good enough and i need to draw Eiffel one more time. First, i thought of a pencil sketch, but as i am practicing my painting skills these days, so i decided to make a painting of the Eiffel Tower. So, that's the painting that this post is all about.

Here is my Eiffel Tower Painting. Of course, not a perfect one or even good but fine if you have just started to paint. It was like my Eiffel Tower sketch mixed up with my painting practice, so forgive my bad painting skills. I made the outline of the Eiffel Tower with a normal pencil and then filled the Eiffel Tower and the surroundings with the help of paint brushes and using water color tubes. To get a little idea about drawing Eiffel Tower and to see the steps i followed in making the Eiffel Tower painting, view the video on the bottom of this post. That's it for the Eiffel Tower painting. Thanks for reading.
