To achieve this, the participant observation method (POM) and studio experimental method were used through which on the spot drawings and digital photographs were taking of Zaria metropolis. In analysing the data, paintings were executed in three categories of the realistic, semi abstract and total abstraction. It was discovered that a reduction of realistic cityscapes into vertical lines brings out their intrinsic aesthetic qualityen_US
