How to Draw the Golden Gate
I suggest you complete a fascinating lesson in which you will learn how to draw the Golden Gate. The guide will be simple and helpful.
I decided to dedicate this lesson to drawing sights, and now you will learn how to draw the Golden Gate step by step. It is a suspension bridge that connects San Francisco and southern Marin County. The bridge got its name from the strait it crosses.
The bridge is painted bright red, which makes it easily recognizable. You may have seen this bridge more than once in many popular films and computer games. Crowds of travelers admire the beautiful view that opens up to this attraction.
While drawing, make sure that both towers are exactly the same. You can use any tools at hand, but I recommend that you draw all the lines yourself so that in the future you can easily draw any more complex object.
