Amazing and beautiful John :)

Stronger use of watercolour here John but your fine pen work is still obvious.

Such a nice painting John.

A lovely piece of work, John.

This is really lovely John, the depth of colour is super and the line work excellent.

There is no doubting your abilities John, your accuracy of drawing to name just one, which relates to your profession. I would however love to see more expressive work from you, forget the architect in you and let yourself go, I think you would excel. <br /><br />This is not a criticism of your work, just a personal observation.

Alan ~ Oh how I would love to loosen up and do more expressive work .. the years as an architect do so get in the way .. I am working on it so as they say &quot;watch this space&quot;

Good for you John, I understand your problem, but give it a shot, it&#39;s so easy, just forget about straight lines and accuracy. Your sketches are all excellent reference material and it is essential that you keep these going. I will look forward to seeing some more expressive work from you in the future perhaps.

A stunning piece, you&#39;ve conveyed the imposing scale of the place magnificently.
