Good one, like the looseness and bits of detail.

Many thanks Seok and Thea. Look forward to seeing your version Thea, it should suit your line and wash style.

I was reading LP this morning and saw the photo there. Then I realised that I had seen this building on POL and here it is. You have done a good job with it Stephen, it looks much better than the photo!

I read with interest, Tony Underhill's excellent article in LP on Urban Sketching. He ended with a photograph of this building, suggesting readers might try sketching it loosely. So this is my attempt using line and watch. I look forward to seeing how he (and others) interpret it.

About the Artist

Stephen Slater

I am a self taught amateur painter, I mostly paint landscapes in watercolour but I 'dabble' in other mediums from time to time. I really enjoy my art, especially painting outdoors when the weather allows.
