Courtyard Arcade at Dawn

Repeating stone arches recede through a quiet courtyard, with vines climbing one side and worn paving leading toward dawn light. Each arch has a firm curve, while age marks and shadow keep sections distinct.

Build one arch from inner curve outward, then use paving lines for perspective. Keep vine pieces with stems and leaves; sky and arch shadows are easier once masonry frame is stable. Masonry chips and vine stems break the repeated arches into smaller, identifiable neighborhoods. Arch interiors grow darker with distance, which helps place similar stone shades in order.
